Select the option to match other Wireless Stations:
•
Disabled - data is NOT encrypted before being transmitted.
•
64 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 64 Bit En-
cryption, the key size is 5 chars (ASCII) or 10 chars in HEX (0~9
and A~F).
•
128 Bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 128 Bit
Encryption, the key size is 13 chars (ASCII) or 26 chars in HEX
(0~9 and A~F).
Normally, this should be left at the default value of "Automatic". If
changed to "Open System" or "Shared Key", ensure that all your
Wireless Stations use the same setting.
•
Hex/ASCII Key Input - Select "Hex" or "ASCII" depending on
your input method. (All keys are converted to Hex, ASCII input is
only for convenience.)
•
Default Key - Select the key (1, 2, 3, or 4) you wish to be the
default key. Transmitted data is ALWAYS encrypted using the
Default Key; the other Keys are for decryption only.
•
Key Value - Enter the key value or values you wish to use. The
default key is essential, and other stations must have the same key,
although it does not have to be the default key on other stations.
If desired, you can generate a key from a phrase, instead of entering
the key value directly. Enter the desired phrase, and click the "Gener-
ate Keys" button.
