Very important note: If you use encryption, it is necessary to type in the same key both
in the wireless ADSL modem/router and the PCMCIA Card or USB Adapter that makes
up your wireless network. For your convenience, make sure you have the configuration
data of your access point
Wireless network encryption is a very important parameter. You have three kinds of
security: "Deshabilitado" (Disabled), "WEP" o "WPA-PSK".
If you choose to select "Desactivado", your connection will be completely open to
unwanted users. Anyone with a wireless device could intercept your signal y use your
wireless network to surf the net or access the information on your local area network.
It is recommended that you always configure your wireless network with the
encryption enabled. "WEP" encryption has two options:
64 bit key:
128 bit key:
You can select any of the two codes. It is recommended to select 128 bits key for an
802.11b Base Unit or wireless ADSL modem/router.
The difference between the two is the length of the key that is used to encode and
decode the data. A 64bit key is made up of 10 hexadecimal digits, which means 0 to 9
and from A to F.
Examples of 64 bits keys:
128 bit keys are made up of 26 hexadecimal digits. For example:
In the example below a 128 bit key is used by selecting "128 bits" and pressing
"Siguiente".
