Chapter 15 - Entering an encryption key

A WEP encryption key protects your wireless network against intrusion by encrypting the data sent through your network. Its setting must be the same for all PCs and devices in your wireless network. (Default: Disabled.)

The WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) implemented in this SL50i is based on the RC4 encryption algorithm. Please enter the key in either Hex or ASCII.

–If the key type is Hex, the security keys are four 10 digit keys for the 64-bit WEP setting and four 26-digit keys for the 128-bit WEP setting (the hexadecimal digits can be 0~9 & A~F, e.g. D7 0A 9C 7F E5).

–If the key type is ASCII, the security keys are four 5-digit keys for the 64-bit WEP setting and four 13-digit keys for the 128-bit WEP setting.

–Consult the ASCII/HEX conversion table if you need to translate a (case-sensitive) ASCII key into HEX notation. Example: MNode (ASCII) = 4D 4E 6F 64 65 (HEX).

Note: Some wireless network devices allow you to type in a passphrase instead of an encryption key.

Do not use passphrases with the SL50i, since passphrases are not supported.

Tip: Enable the encryption key to secure your wireless computer network from intruders. Use an encryption key to secure your wireless network.The encryption key is like a password that you have to set for your Wireless Network Adapter and for the SL50i.

a) Setting the encryption key for the SL50i:

1 Press the MENU button on the remote control, then 2 select ‘Network’, and

3 select ‘WEP encryption’ or ‘WPA encryption’.

4 Enter a 5, 10, 13 or 26 character password (see above) for WEP encryption or a passphrase for WPA encryption.

5 Press the OK button.

> The SL50i will try to reconnect to the wireless network and will lose its connection with your computer.

Note that the encryption key is case sensitive, meaning that ‘HELLO’ is not the same password as ‘hello’ or ‘Hello’.
