  • Wifi 6 Router security settings

    Posted by morset on February 15, 2023 at 10:44 am

    I have an old setting up home wifi article, but was a number of years old. I now have a new NetGear wifi 6 router & wondering what is best security security setting to select?

    Options:
    WPA2-Personal[AES]
    WPA-Personal [TKIP] + WPA2-Personal[AES]
    WPA3-Personal [SAE]

    Thanks!

    Hello morset,

    WPA3, of course, is the best. It is still being adopted so if you set your security to be exclusively WPA3 some Internet Of Things smart devices may not connect. Some wireless routers allow you to use both WPA2 & WPA3 at the same time so check your settings.
