WEP Encryption

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) provides data encryption to prevent unauthorized

 

wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the wireless network.

 

Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

Key 1 to Key 4

If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 characters

 

(ASCII string) or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each

 

key.

 

If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 characters

 

(ASCII string) or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each

 

key.

 

There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from eavesdropping by

 

unauthorized wireless users. The values for the keys must be set up exactly the

 

same on the access points as they are on the wireless stations.
