Phyn devices works best with WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access II) security protocol. WPA2 has been required on all Wi-Fi CERTIFIED products since 2006. Phyn devices supports connections to routers configured to use these Wi-Fi security protocols:
- WEP - Not recommended - Networks using WEP can be easily hacked - See below
- WPA2 Personal (aka WPA2-PSK, PSK2, WPA2-PSK (AES only – not TKIP), WPA2-PSK/AES)
- WPA/WPA2 Personal (aka WPA/WPA2 Mixed mode, WPA/WPA2 PSK, WPA/WPA2 (TKIP/AES), WPAWPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES), PSK2-Mixed)
Note: The Wi-Fi Security Alliance highly recommends that WEP or WPA security protocol users update to either WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal (Mixed mode). See https://www.wi-fi.org/discover-wi-fi/security
