Wireless Security
The wireless security settings, in decreasing order of preference, should be the pre-shared key versions of the following: 1. WPA2 + AES
2. WPA + AES (only if all devices support it).
3. WPA + TKIP (maximum security commonly supported by older wireless adapters - can be cracked as well)
4. WEP (easily cracked in 5 minutes)
5. Disabled (no security. Use some other security layer on top, like a VPN)
