6.2.3.1 WIRELESS SECURITY MODE
•To protect your privacy this mode supports several types of wireless security: WEP WPA, WPA2, and
6.2.3.1.1 WEP (WIRED EQUIVALENT PRIVACY)
•Select the WEP radio button if your wireless network uses WEP encryption. WEP is an acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, and is a security protocol that provides the same level of security for wireless networks as for a wired network.
•WEP is not as secure as WPA encryption. To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length.
