Connecting To The Wireless Network With A Static WEP Client
Static WEP clients should now be able to associate and authenticate with the access point.
As a client, you will not be prompted for a WEP key. The WEP key configured on the client
security settings is automatically used when you connect.

Open or Shared, depending on how you configured this option on the access point.
Note: When the Authentication Algorithm on the access point is set to Both, clients set to
either Shared or Open can associate with the AP. Clients configured to use WEP in
Shared mode must have a valid WEP key in order to associate with the AP. Clients
configured to use WEP as an Open system can associate with the AP even without a
valid WEP key (but a valid key will be required to actually view and exchange data).
For more information, see Online Help on the access point.
WEP
Provide the WEP key you entered on the access point Security settings in the Transfer Key Index posi-
tion.
For example, if the Transfer Key Index on the access point is set to 1, then for the client Network Key
specify the WEP Key you entered as WEP Key 1 on the access point.
Set key index to indicate which of the WEP keys specified on the access point Security page will be
used to transfer data from the client back to the access point.
For example, you can set this to 1, 2, 3, or 4 if you have all four WEP keys configured on the access
point.
Disable this option (click to uncheck the box).
Make sure that IEEE 802.1x authentication is disabled (box should be unchecked).
(Setting the encryption mode to WEP should automatically disable authentication.)
