Section 3 – Configuration
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before connecting to your wireless network adapters.
Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling
encryption due to the added overhead.
1. Select WEP in the Security Mode.
2. Select WEP Key Length.
3. Enter a Phrase and click Generate button to generate
WEP keys.
4. You can also enter WEP keys manually.
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 passphrase as you did on the router.
WEP is the wireless encryption standard. To use it you must enter the same key(s) into the router and the wireless
stations. For 64 bit keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each key box. For 128 bit keys you must enter 26 hex digits
into each key box. A hex digit is either a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F. You may also enter any text string
into the WEP key box, in which case it will be converted into a hexadecimal key using the ASCII values of the
characters. A maximum of 5 text characters can be entered for 64 bit keys, and a maximum of 13 characters for 128
bit keys.
