After analyzing each protocol, it was possible to determine that RADIUS is the ideal protocol for user authentication in a wireless network; concluding that the study allowed to demonstrate that RADIUS offers a higher level of security, multiprotocol support, authentication and authorization of users in the control of access to wireless networks.
