About network keys
This is a data key for encrypting the wireless LAN communication between
IEEE802.11b/g devices. This is also called a Private Key, Encryption Key or
WEP Key.
This enables the wireless LAN communication only between the wireless LAN
access points and computers which use same key information.
The network key is pre-set in each access point (please confirm that the
network key setting is changed after purchasing to prevent illegal usage). If
you don't know the network key, please refer to the manual that came with the
access point or check with the access point administrator.
