3-5-3-2 Encryption: WEP
Enable WEP encryption.
The description of every setting item will be described below:
Item Description
Key Length There are two types of WEP key length: 64-bit and
128- bit. Using „128-bit‟ is safer than ‟64-bit‟, but will
reduce some data transfer performance.
Key Format There are two types of key format: ASCII and Hex.
When you select a key format, the number of
characters of key will be displayed. For example, if you
select ‟64-bit‟ as key length, and „Hex‟ as key format,
you‟ll see the message at the right of „Key Format‟ is
„Hex (10 characters), which means the length of WEP
key is 10 characters.
Default Tx Key You can set up to four sets of WEP key, and you can
decide which key is being used by default here. If you
don’t know which one you should use, select ‘Key
1’.
