Re: AES or TKIP??
the problem i find is that ya... you have tkip and aes there. The problem is that unless you have an opensource firmware or the option in the proprietary garbage either way. Both options are there but it will go with tkip. Which brute forcable. So kindof bad. |

That's odd. WPA2 implicitly implies the presence of AES support.
The two are (in practice) just as good as the other, but in reality AES is stronger and should be preferred over TKIP whenever all your equipment permits.
Note that some multicast traffic is still actually TKIP unless you have a fancy setup which lets you do otherwise.

Thanks, that is what I guessed. I was having problems, but it was due to MAC filtering. Anyways, I appreciate the help. Take care! |

As far as I know, the 327w only does TKIP. On my 327w, I was unable to find any setting to specify AES. And a Windows clients says that TKIP is in use. |

| I was setting up a bridge, using my westell 327w as the primary. Anyways, the bridge wants to know if the encryption on wpa2 personal is aes or tkip. However, the westell 327w simply lists it as wpa2-psk. I was wondering if anyone knew the encryption utilized by the westell 327w for wpa2 personal? |
