Figure 4-2 Utility – WEP Encryption
The Encryption dialog box enables you to identify four different encryption keys and select one of them to
encrypt your transmission data. There are two methods to set the WEP keys as describeds:
Create Encryption Keys by Using a Passphrase
To create encryption keys by using a passphrase, Select either the 64bit or 128bit encryption first and then
select Create Key with Passphrase and type a character string in the Create Key with Passphrase field.
As you type, the utility uses an algorithm to generate four keys automatically. Select one of the four WEP
keys and click OK. Then click the Apply button on the Configuration tab to make the setting take effect.
Create Encryption Keys Manually
You can also create up to four encryption keys manually by selecting Create Keys Manually.

• Hexadecimal: 10 hexadecimal digits in the range of “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9” (e.g. 11AA22BB33)
