MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC A101 - Manual (Page 25)

• 64-bit and 40-bit WEP keys use the same encryption method and
can interoperate on wireless networks. This lower level of WEP
encryption uses a 40-bit (10 hexadecimal digits assigned by the
user) secret key and a 24-bit Initialisation Vector assigned by the
wireless LAN adaptor. 104-bit and 128-bit WEP keys also use the
same encryption method.
• After assigning the WEP keys, click APPLY to save and activate the
encryption. Manually assigned encryptions are more secure than
automatically generated encryptions.
• Use Manual Assignment instead of Automatic Generation if you are
not sure whether other wireless clients use the same algorithm as
that of the Wireless LAN adaptor.
• Keep a record of the WEP encryption keys.
