Encryption
To make your network more secure, you may choose to use
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). WEP is an encryption
scheme used to protect your wireless data communications.
WEP uses a combination of 64-bit or 128-bit keys to provide
access control to your network and encryption security for
every data transmission. To decode a data transmission,
each point in a network must use an identical 64-bit or 128-bit
key. Your PCW200 Wireless 802.11b PCI Adapter supports
both 64-bit W EP and 128-bit WEP.
Encryption can be set to Disabled, 64-bit or 128-bit. Once
enabled, you can create an encryption key by using a
passphrase, or by entering the key manually.

The Passphrase is a case-sensitive text string with a
maximum of 127 characters.
Note: Some products refer to 64-bit encryption as “40-bit”
encryption. Both are names for the same encryption
technology.
