• WEP Mode
Select the level of WEP encryption you wish to use, 64-bit 10 hex digits or
128-bit 26 hex digits, manual or automatic. Higher encryption levels offer
higher levels of security, but due to the complexity of the encryption, they
may decrease network performance.
• 64-bit/128-bit manually
If you are not using a Passphrase, then manually enter a set of values.Using
this mode, the user must manually enter keys as 10 hexadecimal digits (0 to
9 and A to F) for 64 bit keys, or 26 hexadecimal digits for 128 bit keys. If
you are using 64-bit WEP encryption, then the key must be exactly 10
hexadecimal characters in length. If you are using 128-bit WEP encryption,
then the key must be exactly 26 hexadecimal characters in length.
• 64-bit/128-bit automatically
Instead of manually entering WEP keys, you can enter a Passphrase. This
Passphrase is used to generate one or more WEP keys.
Note: All devices in your network must use the same Passphrase or WEP
key.
