Connecting your Computer to a Wireless Network that
Requires a 64-Bit or 128-Bit WEP Key
1.
Double-click the “Signal Indicator” icon to bring up the “Wireless
Network” screen. The “Advanced” button will allow you to view and
configure more options of your wireless card.
2.
Under the “Wireless Network Properties” tab, select a network name
from the “Available networks” list and click “Configure”.
3.
Under “Data Encryption” select “WEP”.
4.
Ensure the check box “Network key is provided for me automatically”
at the bottom is unchecked. If you are using this computer to
connect to a corporate network, please consult your network
administrator if this box needs to be checked.
5.
Type your WEP key in the “Network key” box.
Important
: A WEP key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and
0–9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 keys. For 64-bit WEP, you
need to enter 10 keys. This Network key needs to match the key you
assign to your Wireless Router or access point.
6.
Click “OK” to save the settings.
