5.2.2 Basic (Static WEP/Shared WEP Encryption)
WEP encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless stations and the access points
(AP) to keep network communications private. Both the wireless stations and the access points
must use the same WEP key.
There are two types of WEP authentication namely, Open System (Static WEP) and Shared Key
(Shared WEP).
Open system is implemented for ease-of-use and when security is not an issue. The wireless station
and the AP or peer computer do not share a secret key. Thus the wireless stations can associate
with any AP or peer computer and listen to any transmitted data that is not encrypted.
Security Mode Select Basic or More Secure to add security on this wireless network. The wireless
clients which want to associate to this network must have same wireless security
settings as the LTE Device. When you select to use a security, additional options
appears in this screen.
Or you can select No Security to allow any client to associate with this network
without any data encryption or authentication.
See the following sections for more details about wireless security modes.
