K WEP - Automatic: provides an easy way to generate WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) keys for
encryption of your wireless network traffic. See
K WEP - Manual: WEP Security is a Privacy option that is based on encryption between the Router
and any PCs ("clients") you have with wireless cards. If you are not using WPA-PSK Privacy, you can
use WEP encryption instead. For this encryption to work, both your Router and each client must
share the same Wireless ID, and both must be using the same encryption keys. See

Be sure that your Wi-Fi client adapter supports this option. Not all Wi-Fi clients support WPA-PSK.

nect to your wireless LAN. Use this option if you are using alternative security measures such as
VPN tunnels, or if your network is for public use.
