I hate to keep bothering y'all but I always get good info on this forum. I just got new wireless adapters so I can enable wpa2. I am going to redo everything including hiding my ssid and new passphrase. I found a site at https://www.grc.com/passwords.htm to generate passphrases. My question is which type of phrase will the Z100G accept? Hexadecimal, ASCII, or alpha-numeric. Which would be more secure?

For the most part they are the same thing, just different ways of saying the same thing. You can use the pass phrase generator in the Z100G too.

Also, mixing things up with numbers, capital and lowercase letters, and a symbol or two will provide extremely strong password authentication.

Here is a good article from Microsoft about password strength as well as a password checker. http://www.microsoft.com/protect/yourself/password/create.mspx
