Psion Teklogix 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway User Manual
For this example, we’ll set WEP key 1 on a Windows client.
Figure 10.8 Providing A Wireless Client With A WEP Key
If you have a second client station, that station also needs to have one of the WEP
keys defined on the AP. You could give it the same WEP key you gave to the first
station. Or for a more secure solution, you could give the second station a different
WEP key (key 2, for example) so that the two stations cannot decrypt each other’s
transmissions.
10.2.4.3 Static WEP With Transfer Key Indexes On Client Stations
Some Wireless client software (like Funk Odyssey) lets you configure multiple
WEP keys and set a transfer index on the client station, then you can specify differ-
ent keys to be used for station-to-AP transmissions. (The standard Windows wire-
less client software does not allow you to do this.)
