information between the CB3000 and its associated device.
NOTE: The CB3000 and its associated device are required to use the same key and key length to inter-
operate.
5. Select 128-bits from the
For WEP 128 (104-bit key), the keys are 26 hexadecimal characters in length.
6. Use the Passphrase algorithm
or a Generic Passphrase. Pass keys and pass phrases provides an easy to remember way of entering WEP
key data without having to manually enter the keys each time WEP keys are created.

clients. The CB3000 decodes the PassKey into a set of 4 WEP keys using MD5 algorithms. The WEP keys
display as alphanumeric text in the key fields until saved or the user navigates away from the
screen.
Select Generic Passphrase
decodes the passphrase into a set of 4 WEP keys, with the length depending on the 64 or 128 bit key
length. The WEP keys display as alphanumeric text in the key fields until saved or the user navigates
away from the WEP screen.
7. Specify a 4 to 32 character
The passphase is helpful for entering WEP keys without having the remember all of the characters
comprising the key. The passphase can be any alphanumeric string. The CB3000, other proprietary routers
and Motorola devices use the algorithm to convert an ASCII string to the same hexadecimal number. This
conversion is not required for a wireless connection. Wireless devices without Motorola adapters need
to use WEP keys manually configured as hexadecimal numbers.
