Encryption

To make your network more secure, you may choose to use Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). WEP is an encryption scheme used to protect your wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of 64-bit or 128-bit keys to provide access control to your network and encryption security for every data transmission. To decode a data transmission, each point in a network must use an identical 64-bit or 128-bit key. Your PCW200 Wireless 802.11b PCI Adapter supports both 64-bit W EP and 128-bit WEP.

Encryption can be set to Disabled, 64-bitor 128-bit. Once enabled, you can create an encryption key by using a passphrase, or by entering the key manually.

The Passphrase is a case-sensitive text string with a maximum of 127 characters.

Note: Some products refer to 64-bit encryption as “40-bit”

encryption. Both are names for the same encryption technology.
