ASUS WL-127 Card
19
Key Format allows you to set a hexadecimal digit or ASCII character WEP key.
Key Length allows you to choose a 64-bit or a 128-bit WEP key. A 64-bit encryption contains
10 hexadecimal digits or 5 ASCII characters. A 128-bit encryption contains 26 hexadecimal
digits or 13 ASCII characters.
NOTE. 64-bit and 40-bit WEP keys use the same encryption method and can
interoperate on wireless networks. This lower level of WEP encryption uses a 40-bit
(10 hexadecimal digits assigned by the user) secret key and a 24-bit Initialization
Vector assign by the WL-127. 104-bit and 128-bit WEPs uses the same encryption
method.
Two ways to assign WEP keys
Manual Assignment. For a 64-bit encryption, enter 10 hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, A~F) in
each of the four WEP keys.
Automatic Generation. Type a combination of up to 64 letters, numbers, or symbols in the
Passphrase field. The Wireless Settings Utility uses an algorithm to generate four WEP keys
based on the typed combination.
