This is because the WEP keys of all devices that are to communicate with each

Authentication Process
Enabling EAP on the access point and configuring the USB device to LEAP,
EAP-TLS, PEAP (EAP-GTC), or PEAP (EAP-MSCHAP V2) authentication to
the network occurs in the following sequence:
1. The client associates to an access point and begins authentication.
2. Communicating through the access point, the client and RADIUS server
complete authentication with the password (LEAP and PEAP) or
certificate (EAP-TLS). The password is never transmitted during the
process.
3. After successful authentication, the client and RADIUS server derive a
dynamic WEP key unique to the client.
4. The RADIUS server transmits the key to the access point using a secure
channel on the wired LAN.
5. For the length of a session the access point and the client use this key to
encrypt or decrypt all unicast packets (and broadcast packets).
