9.4 WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a standard for encrypting data
before it is transmitted.
This is desirable because it is impossible to prevent snoopers from
receiving any data which is transmitted by your Wireless Stations.
But if the data is encrypted, then it is meaningless unless the
receiver can decrypt it.
If WEP is used, the Wireless Stations and the Access Point
must have the same settings for each of the following:
WEP
Off, 64 Bit, 128 Bit
Key
For 64 Bit encryption, the Key value must
match.
For 128 Bit encryption, the Key value must
match
WEP
Authentication
Open System or Shared Key.
