Enter a phrase and hit Enter to generate your encryption keys.

You select a single key for encryption of outbound traffic. The WEP-enabled client must have an identical key of the same length, in the identical slot (1 – 4) as the Gateway, in order to successfully receive and decrypt the traffic. Similarly, the client also has a ‘default’ key that it uses to encrypt its transmissions. In order for the Gateway to receive the client’s data, it must likewise have the identical key of the same length, in the same slot. For simplicity, a Gateway and its clients need only enter, share, and use the first key.

The pull-down menu for enabling WEP offers these settings: On - Automatic or On - Manual.

•On - Automatic uses a passphrase to generate encryption keys for you. You enter a passphrase that you choose in the Passphrase field. The passphrase can be any string of words or numbers.

Note: While clients may also have a passphrase feature, these are vendor-specific and may not necessarily create the same keys. You can passphrase generate a set of keys on one, and manually enter them on the other to get around this.

Select the Default Key (#1 – #4). The longer the key, the stronger the encryption and the more difficult it is to break the encryption.

•On - Manual allows you to enter your own encryption keys manually. This is a difficult process, but only
