WEP encryption

If WPA is not supported by all components in your wireless network, we advise you to activate WEP Encryption on your wireless network components.

ìIn the Security field, select the option WEP.

ìSelect the Authentication type:

–Select Shared to require that each client registers on the network with a specified key.

–Select Open to permit data transfer within your wireless network without the need for a key.

You can choose either the standard 64 bit key or the more robust 128 bit key for encryp- tion. The keys are generated in hexadecimal or in ASCII format. You must use the same keys for encryption and decryption for both the Gigaset WLAN Repeater 108 and all your wireless network adapters.
