Configuring a WDS Bridge

Hexadecimal Input - 26 digits (Hex WEP128 104 bit, key should contain 26 characters A-F, 0-9)

Hexadecimal Input - 10 digits (Hex WEP64 40 bit, key should contain 10 characters A-F, 0-9)

Enter at least one encryption key in the first encryption key space. The key should match the format of the chosen WEP encryption type. Additional keys may be entered in boxes 2, 3, and 4.

Click Apply when finished.

After configuring the bridge (the second AirStation) for WEP, log into the first AirStation’s Web-Based Configuration Utility (192.168.11.1) and make exactly the same changes

to the WEP settings. All WEP configuration settings must be exactly the same, or the AirStations will not be able to communicate.

Each wireless client that will connect to the AirStations must also be configured with the exact same WEP encryption key type and encryption key. Consult your wireless client’s documentation for more information on configuring its WEP settings.
