A pre-shared key (PSK) for a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is a password or passphrase used to authenticate devices attempting to connect to the network. It is typically configured in the router's settings and must be entered on each device that wants to join the network. The PSK is crucial for securing the network by ensuring only authorized users can access it, and it is often used in WPA/WPA2 security protocols. Always choose a strong, complex PSK to enhance network security.
