Configure WEP

Using the D-Link Utility

It is recommended to enable WEP on your wireless router or access point before configuring your wireless adapter. If you are joining an existing network, you will need to know the WEP key being used.

1.Open the Wireless Utility by double-clicking on the D-Link icon in your system tray (lower-right corner of screen). From the list of available wireless networks, select the network you want to connect to and click Connect. If the network is using WEP, the screen (as shown to the left) will appear.

2.Enter the WEP key exactly as it is on your wireless router or access point.

3.Click the Show text in the password field box to see the WEP key. Unchecking it will hide the key.

4.Click OK to connect to the network. Allow up to 30 seconds to connect.

If you would like to create a new network and enter the WEP settings, refer to the next page.
