7.3.2 WEP Encryption

WEP encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless stations and the access
points to keep network communications private. It encrypts unicast and multicast
communications in a network. Both the wireless stations and the access points must use the
same WEP key. Your ZyXEL Device allows you to configure up to four WEP keys but only
one key can be enabled at any one time.
It is recommended that wireless networks use WPA-PSK, WPA, or stronger
security. WEP is better than no security, but it is still possible for unauthorized
devices to figure out the original information pretty quickly.
In order to configure and enable WEP encryption; click Network > Wireless LAN to display
the General screen. Select Static WEP as the Server Type.
