Configuring WEP on the SBG940

Use Wired Equivalent Privacy (

WEP

) only if you have wireless clients that do not support WPA.

To enable WEP and set the key on the SBG940:

1

On the SBG940 Setup Program left panel, click Wireless.

2

Click the SECURITY tab to display the Wireless > SECURITY — basic page:

3

In the Security Mode field, select WEP and click Apply.

4

In the WEP Passphrase field, type a passphrase containing from 8 to 31 ASCII characters. For privacy, your
passphrase displays as dots.

Caution!

If you use WEP encryption, you must configure the same WEP key on the SBG940

access point

and

all wireless clients (stations). Never provide your WEP key or passphrase to anyone who is not
authorized to use your WLAN.
