WEP Setup

1.Select “WEP” from the drop-down menu.

2.Select “WEP Mode” of 64-bit or 128-bit.

3.After selecting your WEP mode, you can enter your key by typing in the hex key manually.

A hex (hexadecimal) key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys.

For instance:

AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit key

C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit key

4.Click “Apply Changes” to finish. Encryption in the Router is now set. Each of your computers on your wireless network will now need to be configured with the same security settings.

WARNING: If you are configuring the Wireless Router from a computer with a wireless client, you will need to ensure that security is turned ON for this wireless client. If this is not done, you will lose your wireless connection.

Changing the Wireless Security Settings

Your Router is equipped with WPA/WPA2, the latest wireless security standard. It also supports the legacy security standard, WEP. By default, wireless security is disabled. To enable security, you must first determine which standard you want to use. To access the security settings, click “Security” on the “Wireless” tab.
