WEP keys are entered as hexadecimal numbers (the numbers 0 to 9 and the letters A to F). 64-bit WEP keys are exactly 10 digits in length; 128-bit keys are exactly 26 digits.

WPA and WPA2 keys are between 8 and 63 characters long,

and can use any letter (both upper- and lower-case) number or valid punctuation.

The Squeezebox Duet will do its best to determine the type of security used, but if you’re using WEP encryption it cannot determine if the key length is 64- or 128-bit so you’ll need to know that before you start.

If you are not sure about your network security setup, contact your ISP or the party that installed or configured your wireless router.

Note to Apple Airport Base Station users. Squeezebox Duet follows the

802.11standard and expects the WEP key to be in hexadecimal format. The Airport Base Station uses ASCII characters for the WEP key. You’ll need to find the hexadecimal version of your WEP key to configure your Squeezebox Duet. To do that, please follow these steps:

Open the Airport Admin Utility. On Mac OS X this utility can be found under Applications -> Utilities in the Finder. In Windows, it can be found in Start -> Programs -> Airport Admin Utility.

Select your base station and click the “Configure” button.

Once the Configuration window is open, click the “Password” icon at the top of the window (the icon resembling a padlock). This will show you the key in HEX format. Write that down as the Security Key on the previous page.

Note: 64-bit WEP keys on the Airport Base Station will have exactly 5 characters; 128-bit keys will have exactly 13 characters.

Using Squeezebox Controller

Now would be a good time to familiarize yourself with Squeezebox Controller. Knowing how the interface works will make it easier to set up your Squeezebox Duet.
