Configuring WEP Wireless Security

Note: If you use a wireless computer to configure wireless security settings, you will be
disconnected when you click Apply. Reconfigure your wireless computer to match
the new settings, or access the wireless router from a wired computer to make
further changes.
To configure WEP data encryption:
1. Log in to the wireless router at its default LAN address of http://www.routerlogin.net with
its default user name of admin, and default password of password, or using whatever user
name, password, and LAN address you have chosen for the wireless router.
2. From the main menu, select Wireless Settings to display the Wireless Settings screen.
3. In the Security Options section, select the WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) radio button:
Figure 2-3
4. Select the Authentication Type: Automatic or Shared Key. The default is Automatic.
Note: The authentication scheme is separate from the data encryption. If you require
strong security, use both the Shared Key and WEP encryption settings.
