Changing the Wireless security settings

Your Router is equipped with WPA/WPA2, the latest wireless security

standard� It also supports the legacy security standard, WEP� By

default, wireless security is disabled� To enable security, you must first

determine which standard you want to use� To access the security

settings, click “Security” on the “Wireless” tab�

WeP setup

Select “WEP” from the drop-down menu�

2

Select “WEP Mode” of 64-bit or 128-bit�

After selecting your WEP mode, you can enter your key by typing in

the hex key manually�

A hex (hexadecimal) key is a mixture of numbers and letters from A–F

and 0–9� For 64-bit WEP, you need to enter 10 hex keys� For 128-bit

WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys�

For instance:

AF 0F 4B C3 D4 = 64-bit key

C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit key

Click “Apply Changes” to finish� Encryption in the Router is now

set� Each of your computers on your wireless network will now

need to be configured with the same security settings�

WaRnInG: If you are configuring the Wireless Router from a computer

with a wireless client, you will need to ensure that security is turned

ON for this wireless client� If this is not done, you will lose your

wireless connection�
