Using a Hexadecimal Key
A hexadecimal key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F and
0–9. 64-bit keys are five two-digit numbers. 128-bit keys are 13 two-digit
numbers. For instance: AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit key; C3 03 0F AF 0F
4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit key In the boxes below this (refer
to image below) create your key by writing in two characters between
A–F and 0–9 in each box. You will use this key to program the encryption
settings on your Router and your wireless computers.
Note to Mac® users
: Original Apple® AirPort® products support 64-bit
encryption only. Apple AirPort 2 products can support 64-bit or 128-
bit encryption. Please verify which version you are using. If you cannot
configure your network with 128-bit encryption, try 64-bit encryption.
