This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems related multi-link wireless communication. A method may include establishing, between the first WLAN device and a second WLAN device, a multi-link association that enables a first wireless communication link and a second wireless communication link. The method may include determining a temporal key for the multi-link association. The method may include encrypting a first and second media access control (MAC) protocol data unit (MPDU) based on the temporal key. The method may include preparing a first frame including the encrypted first MPDU and a second frame including the encrypted second MPDU. The method may include assigning packet numbers from a set of sequential packet numbers to the first and second frames. The method may include transmitting the first frame over the first wireless communication link and the second frame over the second wireless communication link.
