Encryption - Click Encryption button for the
WEP setting.
WEP - For more secure data transmission, set the
“64-Bit” or “128-Bit” to ensure wireless network
security. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is
implemented in this device to prevent
unauthorized access to your wireless network. The
128-Bit setting gives a higher level of security but
the setting must be the same as other clients in
your wireless network. (Default: Disabled)
Create with Passphrase - The security key for
WEP encryption is generated from your
Passphrase string, so it must be the same as all the
other stations in your network.
Manual Entry - Allows the user to manually enter
key elements. ( 2 Hexadecimal digits in each block)
Key 1~4 - Each Key ID contains 10 HEX digits but
128-Bit encryption has only 1 Key which contains
26 HEX digits. All wireless devices must have the
same Key ID element values to communicate.
Default Key ID - Choose the Key ID that has the
encryption string you prefer. If using a key
generated from a Passphrase, you must use the
same Passphrase and key on each station.
