About wireless LAN security  
Since communication via the wireless LAN  
function is established by radio waves, the  
wireless signal may be susceptible to  
interception. To protect wireless  
communication, this player supports various  
security functions. Be sure to correctly  
configure the security settings in accordance  
with your network environment.  
No Security  
Although you can easily make settings,  
anyone can intercept wireless  
communication or intrude into your wireless  
network, even without any sophisticated  
tools. Keep in mind that there is a risk of  
unauthorized access or interception of data.  
b
Depending on the connected component, the  
“Control for HDMI” function may not work. Refer  
to the instruction manual supplied with the  
component.  
WEP  
WEP applies security to communications to  
prevent outsiders from intercepting  
communications or intruding into your  
wireless network. WEP is a legacy security  
technology that enables older devices, which  
do not support TKIP/AES, to be connected.  
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)  
TKIP is a security technology developed to  
correct for the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP  
assures a higher security level than WEP.  
WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)  
AES is a security technology that uses an  
advanced security method that is distinct  
from WEP and TKIP.  
AES assures a higher security level than  
WEP or TKIP.
