STEP 1 Click Wireless > Security.

STEP 2 From the Security Mode drop-down menu, select WEP.

STEP 3 To enable wireless isolation within the SSID, click Enabled.

STEP 4 Provide the following information:

•Authentication Type—Choose Open System or Shared Key as the 802.11 authentication type. The default is Open System.

•Default Transmit Key—Select the key to be used for data encryption.

•WEP Encryption—Select a level of WEP encryption, 64 bits (10 hex digits) or 128 bits (26 hex digits).

•Passphrase—To generate WEP keys using a passphrase, then enter the passphrase in the Passphrase field and click Generate. The auto- generated keys are not as strong as manual WEP keys.

•Key 1-4—To manually create WEP keys, enter these keys in the Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, and Key 4 fields. Each WEP key can consist of the letters “A” through “F” and the numbers “0” through “9.”. A key should be 10 characters in length for 64-bit encryption or 26 characters in length for 128-bit encryption.

STEP 5 Click Save.
