WEP Encryption- Select the level of WEP encryption, 64Bit (10 hex digits) or 128Bit (26 hex digits), from the drop-down menu.

Passphrase - To automatically generate one or more WEP keys, enter a passphrase in the Passphrase field and click the Generate button. The passphrase is case-sensitive and should not have more than 16 alphanumeric characters. It must match the passphrase of your other wireless network devices and is compatible with Linksys wireless products only. (If you have any non-Linksys wireless products, enter the WEP key manually on those products.)

Key 1-4 - If you want to manually enter the WEP key, enter it in the appropriate field. The WEP key you enter must match the WEP key of your wireless network. For 64-bit encryption, enter exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128-bit encryption, enter exactly 26 hexadecimal characters. Valid hexadecimal characters are “0” to “9” and “A” to “F”.
