WEP security settings

Select WEP as the WLAN security mode.
The wired equivalent privacy (WEP) encryption method
encrypts data before it is transmitted. Access to the network
is denied to users who do not have the required WEP keys.
When the WEP security mode is in use, and your device
receives a data packet not encrypted with the WEP keys, the
data is discarded.
In an ad-hoc network, all devices must use the same WEP key.
