WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

The privacy service uses a RC4(Ron's Code 4) based encryption scheme to encapsulate the payload of
the 802.11 data frames, called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). WEP is a shared key only. It uses the
symmetrical RC4 algorithm and a PRNG (Pseudo-Random Number Generator). The original standard
specified 40- (a.k.a. 64) and 128-bit key lengths, with a 24-bit initialization vector (IV).
When you enable the 128 or 64 bit WEP key security, please select one WEP key to be used and input
26 or 10 hexadecimal (0, 1, 2...8, 9, A, B...F) digits.
