CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 618

A technician is setting up a SOHO wireless router. The router is about ten years old. The customer would like the most secure wireless network possible. Which of the following should the technician configure?

Answer options

• A. WPA2 with TKIP
• B. WPA2 with AES
• C. WPA3 with AES-256
• D. WPA3 with AES-128

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as WPA2 with AES provides a strong level of security that is compatible with older devices. While WPA3 offers enhanced security features, the router's age suggests it may not support WPA3, making WPA2 with AES the best option. WPA2 with TKIP (A) is less secure than WPA2 with AES, and WPA3 options (C and D) may not be compatible with the older router.
