You can specify either "WEP" or "WPA2" for Security Method.

Specify "WPA2", when [Communication Mode] is set to [Infrastructure Mode].

If you select the [WPA2] option for Security Method, select one of the following: [WPA2-PSK] or [WPA2]. If you select [WPA2-PSK], enter your PSK. If you select [WPA2], authentication settings and certificate installation settings are required. For details about setting methods, see Security Guide.
