TROUBLEshOOTING, sUPPORT, AND WARRANTY

I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent

Privacy (WEP) security on my Router.

1 . Log in to your Router. Visit “http://router/” or “http://192.168.2.1”

with your web browser. Click “Security” under the WiFi

heading. You should now be on the Security page.

2 . Under Security Mode, select the “128-bit WEP” option.

3 . You may type in a WEP key manually, or generate one from

a passphrase. Type a phrase in the “Passphrase” field and

click the “Generate” button. A WEP key is composed of 26

hexadecimal digits (0–9, A–F .. For example, C3 03 0F AF

4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 EE 74 is a valid 128-bit WEP key.

4 . Click “Save” to finish. Your wireless activity is now encrypted. Each

computer using your wireless network will need to use the new key.

note: If you are configuring the Router over a wireless

connection, you will have to re-connect to the

Router after changing any security settings.

note: Some older networking hardware supports

only 64-bit WEP encryption. If your older computers

cannot connect to your network, try 64-bit WEP.
