All wireless clients in a network must have identical WEP keys to
communicate with each other or with an access point.
Two ways to assign WEP keys
Manual Assignment. For a 64-bit encryption, enter 10 hexadecimal digits
(0~9, a~f, A~F) or 5 ASCII characters in each of the four WEP keys. For
128-bit encryption enter 26 hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, A~F) or 13 ASCII
characters in each of the four WEP keys.
Automatic Generation. Type a combination of up to 64 letters, numbers,
or symbols in the Passphrase field. The Wireless Settings utility uses an
algorithm to generate four WEP keys based on the typed combination.
64-bit and 40-bit WEP keys use the same encryption method and can
interoperate on wireless networks. This lower level of WEP encryption
uses a 40-bit (10 hexadecimal digits assigned by the user) secret key
and a 24-bit Initialization Vector assigned by the wireless LAN adapter.
104-bit and 128-bit WEP keys use the same encryption method.
After assigning the WEP keys, click APPLY to save and activate the
encryption. Manually assigned encryptions are more secure than
automatically generated encryptions.
Use Manual Assignment instead of Automatic Generation if you are not
sure whether other wireless clients use the same algorithm as that of
wireless LAN adapter.
Keep a record of the WEP encryption keys.
