Using a Hexadecimal Key

A hexadecimal key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and 0–9. 64-bit
keys are 10 digits long and can be divided into five two-digit numbers. 128-bit
keys are 26 digits long and can be divided into 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. You will use this key to program the encryption settings on your Router
and your wireless computers.

Note to Mac users:

Original Apple AirPort products support 64-bit encryption

only. Apple AirPort 2 products can support 64-bit or 128-bit encryption. Please
check your product to see which version you are using. If you cannot configure
your network with 128-bit encryption, try 64-bit encryption.

Guest Access:

This option allows guest users access to the Internet while

keeping them away from your private network. By default, this option is enabled.
Guest users should connect to the Belkin N+ Guest network.
