Here are descriptions of every setup items:

Key Length (2): There are two types of WEP key length: 64-bit and

128-bit. Using „128-bit‟ is safer than ‟64-bit‟, but

will reduce some data transfer performance.

Key Format (3): There are two types of key format: ASCII and Hex.

When you select a key format, the number of

characters of key will be displayed. For example, if

you select ‟64-bit‟ as key length, and „Hex‟ as key

length of WEP key is 10 characters.

Default Tx Key (4): You can set up to four sets of WEP key, and you can

you don’t know which one you should use, select

‘Key 1’.
