3.2.2.1 WEP
Select “WEP” for the “Encryption” mode if you wish to use WEP to encrypt your wireless
network.
Note: When you select WEP as the security mode under B+G+N or N+G mode, the system will
pop up a warning message: IEEE802.11n standard only accepts AES encryption. If you choose
other option, the data rate will drop to 54Mbps (G Mode). Please be aware that if you wish to
run the router at 11N speed (300Mbps), you must use WPA or WPA2 AES encryption.
Parameters Description
Key Length You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-
bit. Larger WEP key length will provide higher level of security,
but the throughput will be lower.
Key Format You may select to select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric
format) or Hexadecimal Digits (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9” range)
to be the WEP Key.
Default Tx Key You can set up to four sets of WEP key, and you can decide
which key is being used by default here. If you don’t know which
one you should use, select ‘Key 1’.
