Configure WEP
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish
wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to
the added overhead.
1. Log into the web-based configuration by opening a
web browser and entering the IP address of the router
(192.168.0.1). Click on Setup and then click Wireless
Settings on the left side.
2. Next to Security Mode, select WEP.
3. Next to Authentication, select Shared Key or Open.
4. Next to WEP Key Encryption, select the level of ecryption
(64 or 128-bit).
5. Next to Key Type, select the type of WEP key (Hex or
ASCII).
6. Next to WEP Key 1, enter a WEP key that you create.
Make sure you enter this key exactly on all your wireless
devices. You may enter up to 4 different keys.
7. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are
configuring the router with a wireless adapter, you will
lose connectivity until you enable WEP on your adapter
and enter the same WEP key as you did on the router.
