To an unintended receiver, DSSS appears as low power wideband noise and is rejected ignored by most narrowband receivers. However, to an intended receiver i.e. another wireless LAN endpoint, the DSSS signal is recognized as the only valid signal, and interference is inherently rejected ignored  WEP - Wired Equivalent Privacy - A data privacy mechanism based on a 64-bit or 128-bit or 152-bit shared key algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard. To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F or ASCII American Standard Code for Information Interchange - alphanumeric characters format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can be defined so that you can change keys easily
