DESCRIPTION

Key 1 to Key 4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the Prestige and the wireless clients must use the same WEP key for data transmission.

If you chose 64-bit WEP, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").

If you chose 128-bit WEP, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").

If you chose 256-bit WEP, then enter 29 ASCII characters or 58 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").

You must configure all four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one time. The default key is key 1.

The wireless clients and Prestige must use the same ESSID, channel ID and WEP encryption key (if WEP is enabled) for wireless communication.

6.2 Wireless LAN Security Setup

For added security, set your Prestige to check the MAC address of the wireless client device against a list of allowed or denied MAC addresses.

To set up the MAC address list for wireless LAN, click Advanced Setup in the navigation panel, Wireless LAN and then click the MAC Filter link.
