WEP encryption
If WPA is not supported by all components in your wireless network, we recommend
that you activate WEP Encryption on the components.
You can choose either the standard 64-bit key or the more robust 128-bit key. The keys
are generated in hexadecimal format. You must use the same keys for encryption and
decryption for the Gigaset SE587 WLAN dsl and all your wireless network adapters.

tem for the parameter Authentication type. Otherwise choose Shared Key.

passphrase.
