AlphaShield 8800 - Manual (Page 33)

Wireless Security Mode:
WEP
?
WEP is the Wireless Encryption Standard. To
use it you must enter the same key(s) into the
router and the wireless stations. For 64 bit
keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each
key box. For 128 bit keys you must enter 26
hex digits into each key box. A hex digit is either
a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F.
For the most secure use of WEP set the
authentication type to "Shared Key" when
WEP is enabled.
?
You may also enter any text string into a WEP
key box, in which case it will be converted into a
hexadecimal key using the ASCII values of the
characters. A maximum of 5 text characters can
be entered for 64 bit keys, and a maximum of 13
characters for 128 bit keys.
Configure the wireless security features to protect
your privacy. Your AlphaShield Router supports
three wireless security features; WEP, WPA-Personal
and WPA-Enterprise wireless security modes.
The WPA-Enterprise option does require a RADIUS
authentication server.
