Configure the Profile
Encryption
Enable or disable the encryption function for wireless data
communication.
Key Length
You may select either the 64-bit or 128-bit option to encrypt
transmitted data. A larger key length will provide a higher level of
security, but the throughput will be lower.
Key Format
Hexadecimal: You can only use the following characters to set the
WEP key in this format: “A-F“, “a-f“ and “0-9“.
ASCII: Numerical values, characters or signs are acceptable for this
WEP key format. This is usually the easier option for most users.
Default Key
Select one of the keys (1 - 4) as the encryption key.
