2.7.3.2. WEP - Wired Equivalent Privacy

When you select this mode, the wireless router will use WEP encryption, and

the following setup menu will be shown on your web browser:

Here are descriptions of every setup items:

Key Length (2):

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 (3):

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 (4): 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’.
