Disable WEP Encryption
-- Select this button if you wish to disable
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption.
If you are not concerned about security (for example, home users using
this device only to browse the Internet), and if you are not concerned
your AP is used by others, then select this checkbox.
Note:
For simple security, you can disable WEP encryption and select
the Closed Wireless System checkbox.
Static WEP Keys Only
-- Select this button if you wish to enter Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys identically on each access point/station
and Secure Data Mode unit in the network. When you select this button,
the four Static EP Encryption key fields are enabled on the right side of
the screen.
