WEP Data

Select the option to match other Wireless Stations:

Encryption

Disabled - data is NOT encrypted before being transmitted.

 

64 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being

 

transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 64

 

Bit Encryption, the key size is 10 chars in HEX (0~9 and

 

A~F).

 

128 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before

 

being transmitted. You must enter at least the default key.

 

For 128 Bit Encryption, the key size is 26 chars in HEX (0~9

 

and A~F).

 

 

Authentication

Normally, this should be left at the default value of "Automatic".

Type

If changed to "Open System" or "Shared Key", ensure that your

 

Wireless Stations use the same setting.

Default Key

Select the key you wish to be the default. Transmitted data is

 

ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key; the other Keys are for

 

decryption only.

 

You must enter a Key Value for the Default Key.

 

 

Key Value

Enter the key value or values you wish to use. The Default Key

 

is required, the other keys are optional. Other stations must have

 

the same key.

 

 

Passphrase

If desired, you can generate a key from a phrase, instead of

 

entering the key value directly. Enter the desired phrase, and

 

click the "Generate Keys" button.
