WEP
Encryption
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) provides data encryption to prevent unauthorized
wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the wireless network.
Select 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP or 152-bit WEP to enable data encryption.
Authentication
Method
Select Shared-Key to have the LAN-Cell use the default WEP key to authenticate the
wireless client to the LAN-Cell.
Select Auto to have the LAN-Cell switch between the shared-key and open system
(the wireless clients and AP do not share a secret key for authentication) modes
automatically.
The default setting is Auto.
Key 1 to Key 4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the LAN-Cell and the wireless clients
must use the same WEP key for data transmission.
If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 ASCII
characters or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each key.
If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 ASCII
characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each key.
If you chose 152-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 16 ASCII
characters or 32 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") preceded by 0x for each key.
You can configure up to four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one time.
The default key is key 1.
