How to set up WEP:
The WEP mechanism is based on the RC4 encryption algorithm. The security keys are
provided to ensure data confidentiality. WEP security protects your wireless LAN against
eavesdropping and unauthorized access by intruders. If WEP is in use, all clients on the
same network must use the same WEP key settings in order to communicate with each
other.
To use the WEP function, take the following steps:
Step 1. Select 64 bit or 128 bit in the Encryption field.
Step 2. To automatically generate keys, check the Passphrase box, then type in a string
of characters (a maximum of 32 digits) into the field. If you are using an auto-generated
key, you must use the same passphrase and key on every station within the same
network. Please note that when Encryption is set to 64 bit, 4 keys will be generated.
When 128 bit Encryption is selected, only one key will be auto generated.
Step 3. In the Default Key field, select one number to use as the default key from the
drop-down menu.
Step 4. Click Apply changes to allow the settings to take effect.
