128-bit WEP
128-bit WEP requires one key of 13 hexadecimal pairs. A hexadecimal digit consists
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 you activate 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:Ifthe WEP keys on the Router have been changed, the
WEP keys on any wireless clients must also be changed, or they
will not be able to access the Router.
☞Note:Not all wireless PC Cards support 128-bit WEP.Ensure
that all PC Cards on your networked computers support 128-bit
WEP before activating.
DHCP Server
Selecting DHCP Server in the “Custom Setup” screen generates the “DHCP Server”
screen. The Router has a built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
server that automatically assigns a different IP address to each computer on your
network, eliminating IP address conflicts.
The factory default setting is On.To disable the DHCP Server, select Off.
