How Do I Configure the Cable Modem Gateway?
Configuring Your Wireless Network Security and Encryption
Parameters
Use the Setup Wireless - Security page to configure your WAP wireless equivalent
privacy (WEP) encryption keys and authentication.
Note:
If you are not familiar with the advanced settings detailed in this section,
contact your service provider before you attempt to change any of the cable modem
gateway default wireless security settings.
Click
Security
in the Wireless section of the Setup page to access the Setup Wireless -
Security page.
Important!
Your cable modem gateway ships from the factory with 128-bit WEP
encryption enabled to provide you with a
basic
level of wireless network security. To
gain initial access to your wireless network, select 128-bit WEP encryption on your
computer's wireless adapter and enter the 128-bit encryption key to match the key
setup in your gateway. The factory default 128-bit key in the gateway is 26 ones (see
the following example). You can continue to use this factory default key. However,
to maximize your wireless security, it is highly recommended that you use
something other than the factory default key.
