The Security entry covers both Wireless Protected Access (WPA) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WPA) 802.11 security settings. Access Control maintains indexed lists of MAC-based access properties and WDS provides parameters to govern wireless behavior as an AP (access point) bridge or repeater, if another router handles routing. AP Discovery lets you discover nearby APs to be added to WDS settings; Station List identifies various radio connections with status indicators; and Rate Control enables control over upload and download rates.
