Changing the Wireless security settings
Your Router is equipped with WPA/WPA2, the latest wireless security
standard� It also supports the legacy security standard, WEP� By
default, wireless security is disabled� To enable security, you must first
determine which standard you want to use� To access the security
settings, click “Security” on the “Wireless” tab�
WeP setup
1 Select “WEP” from the drop-down menu�
2 Select “WEP Mode” of 64-bit or 128-bit�
3 After selecting your WEP mode, you can enter your key by typing in
the hex key manually�
A hex (hexadecimal) key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F
and 0–9� For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys� For 128-bit
WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys�
For instance:
AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit key
C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit key
4 Click “Apply Changes” to finish� Encryption in the Router is now
set� Each of your computers on your wireless network will now
need to be configured with the same security settings�
WaRnInG: If you are configuring the Wireless Router from a computer
with a wireless client, you will need to ensure that security is turned
ON for this wireless client� If this is not done, you will lose your
wireless connection�
