WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

When using wireless communication, WEP is used to
encrypt data to prevent it from being analyzed by another
party. To enable WEP, you must configure a wireless
passkey called a WEP key.
The AIBO

Entertainment Robot ERS-7M3 supports both

the WEP64 (40 bit) and the WEP128 (104 bit) encryption
systems.
If using WEP64, use 5 alphanumeric characters, or “0x”
followed by 10 hexadecimal characters.
If using WEP128, use 13 alphanumeric characters, or “0x”
followed by 26 hexadecimal characters.

Wireless channel

Under IEEE 802.11b, the 2.4 GHz band is divided into 14
channels. Assigning different channels to different networks
in proximity to one another avoids channel interference.
The AIBO robot ERS-7M3 can use wireless channels 1-11.
To configure the wireless channel under Infrastructure mode,
set the channel value on the access point. The new setting
will be automatically reflected in all of the network devices.
