Question

A SOHO router in a municipal field office still shows WPA-Personal (original WPA1). What should the technician do?

Accepted Answer

Stop using WPA-Personal and move the office SSID to WPA2-Personal or WPA3-Personal. — Original WPA-Personal is the old handshake that aged out years ago. "Personal" in the label does not mean current—upgrade the field-office SSID to WPA2-Personal or WPA3-Personal and leave WPA1 behind.

Answer

Keep WPA-Personal because the name includes "Personal," which means it is still approved.

Answer

Enable WPA-Personal with TKIP-only to maximize backward compatibility for scanners.

Answer

Use WPA-Personal plus a hidden SSID as an acceptable temporary harden step.
