Encrypton

Select the appropriate level of encryption,

40/64-bt (0 hex dgts) or 04/28-bt (26 hex dgts).

A higher level of encryption is more secure.

Passphrase

Instead of manually entering WEP keys, you

can enter a Passphrase. It is case-sensitive and should not be

longer than 32 alphanumeric characters. (This Passphrase

function is compatible with Linksys wireless products only

and cannot be used with Windows XP Zero Configuration.

If you want to communicate with non-Linksys wireless

products or Windows XP Zero Configuration, make a note

of the WEP keys generated, and enter the appropriate one

manually in the wireless computer or client.) If you want

to use a Passphrase, then enter it in the Passphrase field

and click the Generate button.

Keys -4

If you are not using a Passphrase, then manually

enter a set of values. (Do not leave a key field blank, and

do not enter all zeroes; they are not valid key values.) If

you are using 40/64-bit WEP encryption, the key must be

exactly 10 hexadecimal characters in length. If you are

using 104/128-bit WEP encryption, the key must be exactly

26 hexadecimal characters in length. Valid hexadecimal

characters are “0”-“9” and “A”-“F”.

TX Key

To indicate which WEP key to use, select a default

Transmit (TX) Key number.
