		an encryption mechanism used to protect your
		wireless data communications. WEP uses a
		combination of 64-bit/128-bit keys to encrypt data that
		is transmitted between all points in a wireless network
		to insure data security. To code/decode the data
		transmission, all points must use the identical key. To
		make the WEP encryption active or inactive, select
		“Mandatory” or “Disable”.
	WEP Key	As the WEP is active, click the button of “WEP Key
	Setting:	Setting” to go to the setting page. Select “64Bit” or
		“128Bit” encryption algorithm from the drop-down list.
		There are two ways to generate WEP key:
		Passphrase Enter an alphanumeric text string in this
		column then click “Generate” button, and four 64-bit
		encryption keys will be created automatically. Note
		that only one 128-bit key will be generated in 128-bit
		encryption mode.
		Manually You may need to enter the WEP key
		manually in case to join the existing wireless network.
		However, if not, the Pass phrase method is
		recommended. If you are not sure which way to use,
		check with your network administrator.
		Default Transmit Key Select one of the four keys to be
		the encryption key you are going to use in the wireless
		network. Make sure that all the points in a same
		wireless network have the same encryption key.
	Beacon	It’s the signal sent periodically by wireless access
	Interval:	point to provide synchronization among the stations in
		wireless LAN.
	RTS Threshold:	RTS packet is use to account for potential hidden
		stations. This feature allows you to set the size of RTS
		packet.
	Fragmentation	If the length of data frame needing transmission
	Threshold:	exceeds the fragmentation threshold you set in the
		column, the data frame will be fragmented. If there is
		significant interference or high utilization in your
		wireless network, a smaller fragmentation value can
		increase the reliability of transmission. However, it is
		more efficient to set a large fragment size.
	DTIM Interval:	DTIM is the acronym of Delivery Traffic Indication
		Message. It determines how often the MAC Layer
		forwards multicast traffic.
	Basic Rate:	Leave “Mixed” as default setting to compatible with
		different wireless standard or select other rates you
		wish to use to connect with specific wireless standard
		devices.
	Transmission	Leave “Default” setting or select other speed you wish
	Rate:	to use.
	Preamble Type:	Leave “Dynamic” as default setting or select other type
		to compatible with special settings your client devices
		use.
