While we know that running a tight ship starts with router security, what you may not know is some security settings may slow down your entire network. Let's look at which security protocol is more secure, and which option allows a faster connection.
It's important to note that this was never intended to be a full-on solution, but rather an interim choice that allowed users to use their existing routers while upgrading from the terrible WEP protocol and its notable security flaws. Wi-Fi Protected Setup was designed for easy device connectivity. But it released with enough security flaws that it fell out of favor and began to fade into oblivion, taking WPA with it. AES, you see, is a real encryption algorithm, and not the type used solely for Wi-Fi networks.
It's a serious worldwide standard that has been used by government and many others to protect data from prying eyes. That the same standard is used to protect your home network is a real bonus, but one that required an update in router hardware. The upgraded security protocol includes important features for modern Wi-Fi connectivity, including:. Support for WPA3 is still in the very early stages. Widespread WPA3 won't occur for a little while. Still, you will find routers on the market advertising support for WPA3 when the security protocol rolls out to consumers properly.
TKIP is essentially a patch for WEP that resolved the problem of attackers uncovering your key after observing a relatively small amount of router traffic. To address the problem, TKIP fixed this issue by issuing a new key every few minutes, which, in theory, wouldn't give a hacker enough data to break the key or the RC4 stream cipher that the algorithm relies on. While TKIP offered a significant security upgrade at the time, it has since become a deprecated technology that is no longer considered secure enough to protect your network from hackers.
