Wireless Security

The DSL-G604T offers three types of network security: WEP, 802.1X, and WPA.
WEP
WEP (Wireless Encryption Protocol) encryption can be enabled for security and privacy. WEP encrypts the
data portion of each frame transmitted from the wireless adapter using one of the predefined keys.
The router offers 64-, 128, or 256-bit encryption with four keys available.
To bring up the WEP configuration window, click the WEP radio button.

right, then enter the proper-length key. (Key length is outlined at the bottom of the window.)
Click Apply.
Important Note: If encryption of any kind, at any level is applied to the Router, all devices on the network must
comply with all security measures.
