Anyone know what's the difference between 'WPA2 home' and 'WPA2 enterprise'?

I believe the basic answer is that the Enterprise version was designed
with the Star Trek fans in mind while the other is for the rest of the
population...

To get real, the Enterprise version expects a Radius server to be
somewhere on the network handling the passwords and usually asks you for
the address of it while configuring the router or access point.

The home version does not use a radius server and the pass phrase is
configured by you in the router or access point and any computers that
you want to access it.

OK thanks, so it seems I used the right one (home).

Yes, for 99% of us that have a home system what you used is exactly the
right one. Only those who are real geeks or run a commercial enterprise
play around with the other version.
