HomeSafe User’s Guide

Key 1 to Key 4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the HomeSafe and the wireless stations 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").

 

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

 

default key is key 1.
