Authentication Type: There are two authentication types: "Open System" and
"Shared Key". When you select "Open System",
wireless stations can associate with this wireless router
without WEP encryption. When you select "Shared Key",
you should also setup a WEP key in the "Encryption"
page. After this has been done, make sure the wireless
clients that you want to connect to the device are also
setup with the same encryption key.
Key Length: You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit.
The larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but
the throughput will be lower.
Key Type: You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or
Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the
WEP Key.
Key1 - Key4: The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless
network. Use the following rules to setup a WEP key on the device.
64-bit WEP: input 10-digits Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range)
or 5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys.
128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range)
or 13-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
Click <Apply> at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations.
You can now configure other sections by choosing Continue, or choose Apply to
apply the settings and reboot the device.
