NETGEAR 2.4 GHz MA111 manual Security, Profile Section, Stations Section, For 128-bit encryption

For 128-bit encryption:

Hexadecimal: 26 hexadecimal digits in the range of “A-F”, “a-f ” and “0-9” (e.g. 00112233445566778899AABBCC).

4.When you are done, click the Apply button and click OK for the changes to take effect.

Important Note: The WEP keys must be set up exactly the same on all wireless devices in order to communicate with each other.

This table describes the options available from the Security section:

Security	Description
Enable WEP	Enables the data encryption for the wireless node. If you disable the
Encryption	data encryption (by unchecking the box) then no encryption method
	will be used; this is also called Open System data encryption. To enable
	encryption is to use the Shared Key data encryption method.
Create with	A Passphrase is use to automatically generate the WEP hexadecimal
Passphrase	numbers for the key. If your wireless network Access Point uses a
	Passphrase, you can use that here.
	Once you type in the Passphrase, the generated key will be shown
	before you click OK or Apply button.
Manual Entry	The WEP hexadecimal numbers are needed if a Passphrase is not used
	in the wireless Access Point but rather if the key is manually entered.
Key Length	The key length must be the same between all wireless nodes and Access
	Points in the same network. The possible values for the data encryption
	level are 64-bit and 128-bit. The 64-bit data encryption is also called
	40-bit data encryption by some vendors.
	The MA111 device uses a selected WEP key to encrypt and decrypt
Key1
Key2	information. When set to 64-bit (also called 40-bit), or 128-bit data
	encryption mode, you may specify up to four different keys to encrypt
Key3	wireless data.
Key4	Select one of the keys as a default key.

Profile Section

The Profile area allows you to set values for all parameters by selecting a previously defined profile.
