screen.
1. If you have wireless security enabled on your network, continue to step 2. If you don’t have wireless security
enabled, continue to step 3.
2. If your network has WEP, WPA Personal, or WPA2 Personal wireless security enabled, then that security
screen will appear. Continue to the screen for your wireless security.

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
If you have WEP enabled, this screen will appear. Select 64-bit or 128-bit. Then enter a passphrase or
WEP key. You must enter the same security settings used on your network.
Passphrase - Enter a passphrase in the
Passphrase
field, so a WEP key is automatically generated. The
passphrase is case-sensitive and should not be longer than 16 alphanumeric characters. It must match
the passphrase of your wireless network and is compatible with Linksys wireless products only. (If you
have any non-Linksys wireless products, enter the WEP key manually on those products.)
WEP Key - The WEP key you enter must match the WEP key of your wireless network. For 64-bit
encryption, enter exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128-bit encryption, enter exactly 26
hexadecimal characters. Valid hexadecimal characters are “0” to “9” and “A” to “F”.
Then click
Connect
and proceed to Step 3.
•
WPA Personal (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
If your network has the wireless security WPA Personal enabled, this screen will appear. You must enter
the same security settings used on your network.
Encryption - Select the type of algorithm you want to use, TKIP or AES, from the
Encryption
drop-down
menu.
Pre-shared Key - Enter a Pre-shared key of 8-63 characters in the
Pre-shared Key
field.
Then click
Connect
and proceed to Step 3.
