Section 6 | Security
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is used to protect your data as
it is transmitted over the wireless connection. The EZ Connect
Wireless Ethernet Adapter supports two levels of encryption,
64-bit and 128-bit, and both HEX and ASCII formats. Please
refer to the chart below for the each key and formats require-
ments.
64-bit 128-bit Character Limits
ASCII 5 characters 13 characters 0-9 A-Z
HEX 10 characters 26 characters 0-9 A-F
The EZ Connect Wireless Ethernet Adapter provides a
“Passphrase” feature in both the Windows and Web-based
Utilities. This feature allows you to take an easy-to-remember
term, such as your name, and generate 4 unique WEP keys.
This is a convenient feature to use when you are continually
changing your WEP keys to provide top-level wireless security.
