Key Table for HexValue
−
A HexValue is strictly defined
according to the WEP encryption level (WEP Key Size). The
HexValue consists of the numbers from 0-9 and letters A-F. Each
encryption level requires a different number of HexValues digits as
follows:
z
64-bit encryption, type in 10 hexadecimal digits in the
QuickKey String field
z
128-bit encryption, type in 26 hexadecimal digits
z
152-bit encryption, type in 58 hexadecimal digits
Type in 4 hexadecimal values in the spaces provided. Use the
Valid Index
drop-down menu to select the number of the HexValue
key (Group Index) to activate the key.
Caution:
If you have made encryption operation in [Open System], you will have to change
the password if you switch to [Share Key] mode. Otherwise the network adapter
cannot access the AP.
