1. To enable wireless security on the Router, use the
drop-down menu to select the desired option. To
enable WEP, select Enable WEP Wireless Security (basic).
2. Next to Authentication, select either Open or Shared
Key. Shared Key provides greater security.
3. Select either 64Bit or 128Bit encryption from the drop-
down menu next to WEP Encryption.
4. Next to Default Key Type, select WEP Key 1 and enter
a WEP key that you create. Make sure you enter this
key exactly on all your wireless devices. You may enter
up to four different keys either using Hex or ASCII. Hex
is recommended (letters A-F and numbers 0-9 are valid).
In ASCII all numbers and letters are valid.
5. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are
configuring the Router with a wireless adapter, you
will lose connectivity until you enable WEP on your
adapter and enter the same WEP key as you did on
the Router.

NOTE:
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless Router
before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless
connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may
degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead.
