So, what's the problem? AES is better than TKIP. Use it.

Errr...

WAP = Wireless Application Protocol This is what allows broswer-based access from mobile devices such as mobile phones (cell phones).

An access point is, by definition, wireless...

Kind regards

It means that as well. Though, WAP is also an accepted acronym for wireless access point.

To you as well.
