menu to select the desired option. To enable WEP, select
Enable WEP Wireless Security (basic).

key that you create. Make sure you enter this key exactly on all
your wireless devices. You may enter up to four different keys

numbers 0-9 are valid). In ASCII all numbers and letters are valid.
5. Click Save.Settings to save your settings. If you are configuring
the router with a wireless adapter, you will lose connectivity
until you enable WEP on your adapter and enter the same
WEP key as you did on the router.

Wireless Security
NOTE:
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router
before connecting your wireless network adapters. Please establish
wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal
may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead.
