4. From
the
Default Key list, select one of the four keys to encrypt the data you are going
to transmit.
5. In
the
Mode list, select Mandatory or Optional as required.
Mandatory: If selected, you need to set the WEP keys to have your station use WEP
encryption to communicate with other stations. As a result, any other station within the
wireless network will need to use WEP encryption to establish connection with your
station.
Optional: If selected, your station can communicate with other stations within the
wireless network regardless if they use WEP or not.
6. Select
Open System, Shared Key or Auto as the Authentication Type.
Your authentication type must be the same as those on the Access Point/wireless client
(Ad-Hoc mode) with which you want to associate.
7. To have the new settings take effect, click the Submit. Then click Exit to exit the utility.
Note: To use data encryption, all the wireless stations and/or Access Points must use the same
encryption key values. For example, if you use Key #1 on your Wireless LAN Card and a
value is assigned, then the same value must be assigned to Key 1 for all other client stations.
