Perhaps you’ve never wondered about Wi-Fi encryption and don’t know what it is. Wi-Fi encryption<\/strong> or encryption standards<\/strong> change over time and as new ones are developed, older ones become insecure and obsolete. Find out which is the best Wi-Fi encryption this year 2022.<\/p>\n

WPA3 or Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 3<\/h3>\n

For home use the best option is the WPA3-Personal<\/strong> standard. This allows you to choose your own arbitrary password. Unlike WPA3-Enterprise<\/strong>, WPA3-Personal does not require in-depth knowledge<\/strong> of wireless security to set up correctly.<\/p>\n

How to configure my router?<\/h3>\n

First of all, you should be aware that since WPA3 is quite new, your router may not be able to run it. In case both your router and your equipment are compatible with this encryption, you will need to follow these simple steps<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Log in to the configuration interface of the device via the local web address provided. You will find this information in the device documentation or by contacting your provider.<\/li>\n
  2. Look for a menu called Security Level<\/strong> or SSID Settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. Once you are in that section, you will see all the standards it supports, and you must choose WPA3<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Encryptions you should avoid<\/h3>\n

    WPA2 standards are insecure and have been compromised. However, they are still better than previous Wi-Fi security standards, so they are not a bad choice.<\/p>\n

    However, there are other standards that you should avoid at all costs:<\/p>\n
