Setting WEP Encryption (64-bit, 128-bit)

Note to Mac users:

The passphrase option will not operate with

Apple

AirPort

. To configure encryption for your Mac computer, set the

encryption using the manual method described in the next section.

Select “128-bit WEP” or “64-bit WEP” from the drop-down menu.

After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can enter your

WEP key manually by typing in the hex WEP key manually, or

you can type in a passphrase in the “Passphrase” field and

click “Generate” to create a WEP key from the passphrase.

Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all of your

clients to match these settings. Note on passphrases: The

passphrase generation technique works with all Belkin wireless

clients. It is not guaranteed to work with other brands of wireless

clients. If you are using a mix of Belkin and other products, it is

recommended that you use a hex key. For more information on

hex keys, see page 51 in this User Manual.

Encryption in the Router is now set. Each of your computers on

your wireless network will now need to be configured with the

same passphrase. Refer to the documentation of your wireless

network adapter for information on making this change.
