Using a Hexadecimal Key
A hexadecimal key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. 64-bit
keys are five two-digit numbers. 128-bit keys are 13 two-digit numbers.
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
In the boxes below, make up your key by writing in two characters between A–F
and 0–9 in each box. You will use this key to program the encryption settings on
your Router and your wireless computers.
