Encryption
You may desire an additional measure of security on your wireless network,
which can be achieved by using WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption.
WEP encrypts each frame transmitted from the radio using one of the Keys
entered from this panel.
When an encrypted frame is received it will only be accepted if it decrypts
correctly. This will only happen if the re ceiver has the WEP Key used by the
transmitter.
To be written to the driver and registry, each key must consist of hex digits,
which means that only digit 0-9 and letters A-F are valid entries. If entered
incorrectly program will not write keys to a driver.
You can set this to disable, 64 bit or 128 bit.
