Support for WPA™ and WPA2™ ensure the usage of the best possible encryption available, regardless of your client devices. In addition, the DIR-501 utilizes dual active firewalls (SPI and NAT) to prevent potential attacks from across the Internet. Plus, the DIR-501 includes Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS) with a push button feature that easily sets up and activates your network security functions.
