Changing the Set-up of Your WLAN
Changing the Encryption Settings
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security feature that encrypts
the data being sent over the radio waves of your WLAN.
Disabled encryption allows your Wireless devices to share data in
plain text. The default Encryption Key Length setting is Disabled.
Setting encryption to 64-Bit or 128-Bit encryption limits data
sharing and increases data security, but may slow data
transmission.
Set the level of security you require for your WLAN.
Note: For all the computers on your WLAN to communicate
with each other and share data, they must have identical
encryption (WEP) settings.
To change the encryption setting of your Wireless PCI Adapter:
1 Open the Adaptec Wireless Utility. See Step 1 on page 29.
2 Click the Encryption tab.
