64-bit WEP

64-bit WEP requires four separate keys. Each key comprises five hexadecimal digit pairs. A hexadecimal digit consists of an alphanumeric character ranging from 0-9 or A-F. An example of a 64-bit WEP key is: 4E-A3-3D-68-72. To create a set of 64-bit WEP keys, enter five hexadecimal digit pairs in each Key text box (Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4). After activating 64-bit WEP on the Router, a com- puter with wireless capability can join the network only if these same keys are entered in the computer’s wireless encryption scheme.

128-bit WEP

128-bit WEP requires one key of 13 hexadecimal pairs. A hexadecimal digit con- sists of alphanumeric characters ranging from 0-9 or A-F. An example of a 128-bit WEP key is: 3D-44-FE-6C-A1-EF-2E-D3-C4-21-74-5D-B1. To create a 128-bit WEP key, enter 13 hexadecimal digit pairs in the Key text box. After activating 128- bit WEP on the Router, a computer with wireless capability can join the network only if this key is entered in the computer’s wireless encryption scheme.

Note: Not all wireless PC Cards support 128-bit WEP. Ensure that all PC Cards installed in the networked computers support 128-bit WEP before activating.
