WEP 64 BITS / WEP 128 BITS
A preshared key, which controls access to the WLAN network, is used in the WPA settings
with the WEP 64 bits / 128 bits mode. The difference is that this key cannot be changed in
WEP mode, but remains a static key.
A UTHENTICATION TYPE :
Automatic:
The Automatic mode automatically selects the authentication type.
Open System:
The Open System authentication type is the default authentication setting.
Shared Key:
The Shared Key authentication type is using an extended handshake mechanism for
logging in, which however, does not provide additional security.
Key encoding:
ASCII or HEX may be used as key encoding types. ASCII is a 7-bit, and HEX is a 16-bit
encoding system.
WEP key:
The WEP key is restricted to 5 characters if ASCII is selected. HEX allows entering a 10-
digit WEP key. No words, but combinations of letters and numbers should be used when
choosing the key.
