LABEL DESCRIPTION
Security Mode Choose Static WEP from the drop-down list box.
WEP
Encryption WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) provides data encryption to prevent unauthorized
wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the wireless network.
Select
64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.
Key 1 to Key 4 If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 characters
(ASCII string) or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each
key.
If you chose
128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 characters
(ASCII string) or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each
key.
There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from eavesdropping by
unauthorized wireless users. Both the ZyXEL Device and the wireless stations must
use the same WEP key for data transmission.
