If Data Security (also called WEP or Encryption) is enabled
at the Access Point, enter matching setting values for the
Wireless LAN PC Card, as described below.

Notes

• Input is case sensitive. Be sure to use the same uppercase/lowercase spelling as at

the Access Point.

• The Data Security function serves to prevent unauthorized access to your

network. It is strongly recommended that you enable Data Security after having
checked that communication can be established. For details about changing the
settings of the Access Point, see the documentation of the Access Point. After
changing the settings of the Access Point, use Client Manager to change the
settings for the Wireless LAN PC Card accordingly.

1. Select the “Enable Data Security” check box.

2. Select the input method for the key (the key is a password for

connecting to an Access Point with Data Security enabled):
“Use Alphanumeric Characters (0 - 9, a - z, A - Z)” or “Use
Hexadecimal (0 - 9, a - f, A - F)”. Symbols are also available
when you select “Alphanumeric Characters (0-9, a-z, A-Z)”.

Note

If the Access Point still uses the factory default key, it is strongly recommended
that you change it after having checked that communication can be established.
After changing the settings of the Access Point, use Client Manager to change
the settings for the Wireless LAN PC Card accordingly. For details about
changing the settings of the Access Point, see the documentation of your Access
Point.
