communicate with the access points without any data encryption. Select 64‐

WEP or 128‐bit WEP to use data encryption.
Key#1~Key#4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the DSL Router
and the wireless clients must use the same WEP key for data transmission. If
you chose 64‐bit WEP, then enter any 10 hexadecimal digits ("0‐9", "A‐F")
preceded by 0x for each key (1‐4). If you chose 128‐bit WEP, then enter 26
hexadecimal digits ("0‐9", "AF") preceded by 0x for each key (1‐4).The values
must be set up exactly the same on the Access Points as they are on the
wireless client stations. The same value must be assigned to Key 1 on both
the access point (your DSL Router) and the client adapters, the same value
must be assigned to Key 2 on both the access point and the client stations
and so on, for all four WEP keys.
