Reference Manual for the ADSL Modem Router DG834 v3
Encryption—select the desired Encryption Algorithm, and enter the key in the field provided. For 3DES, the keys should be 24 ASCII characters and for DES, the keys should be 8 ASCII characters.
•DES—the Data Encryption Standard (DES) processes input data that is 64 bits wide, encrypting these values using a 56 bit key. Faster but less secure than 3DES.
•3DES—(Triple DES) achieves a higher level of security by encrypting the data three times using DES with three different, unrelated keys.
Authentication—select the desired SHA-1 or MD5 Authentication Algorithm, and enter the key in the field provided. For MD5, the keys should be 16 ASCII characters. For SHA-1, the keys should be 20 ASCII characters.
•MD5—128 bits, faster but less secure.
•SHA-1 (default)—160 bits, slower but more secure.
