The SMC2655W Access Point supports Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) in order to secure your wireless network and prevent un
authorized access. For more secure data transmissions, set encryption
to "128-bit" or "64-bit". The 128-bit setting gives a higher level of
security. The setting must be the same for all clients in your wireless
network. By default, the WEP is disabled.
