Select the option to match other Wireless Stations:
•
Disabled - data is NOT encrypted before being transmitted.
•
64 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 64 Bit En-
cryption, the key size is 5 chars (ASCII) or 10 chars in HEX
•
128 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 128 Bit
Encryption, the key size is 13 chars (ASCII) or 26 chars in HEX
Note: Hex chars are 0~9 and A~F.
Normally, this should be left at the default value of "Automatic". If
changed to "Open System" or "Shared Key", ensure that your Wireless
Stations use the same setting.
Select "Hex" or "ASCII" depending on your input method. (All keys
are converted to Hex, ASCII input is only for convenience.)
Select the key you wish to be the default. Transmitted data is
ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key; the other Keys are for
decryption only.
You must enter a Key Value for the Default Key. Other stations must
have the same key.
Enter the key value or values you wish to use. The Default Key is
required, the others are optional.
If desired, you can generate a key from a phrase, instead of entering
the key value directly. Enter the desired phrase, and click the "Gener-
ate Keys" button.
