for future reference.

The security key must follow the following criteria.

WEP key

Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F and 0–9.

Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard.

WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK key

Up to 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F and 0–9.

Between 8 and 64 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard.
