set. Each of your computers on your wireless network will now
need to be configured with the same security settings.

WARNING:

If you are using a wireless client to turn on the security

settings in your wireless router, you will temporarily lose your wireless
connection until you activate security on your wireless client. Please
record the key prior to applying changes in the wireless router. If
you don’t remember the hex key, your client will be locked out of the
wireless router.

Select “WEP” from the drop-down menu.

After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can enter your

key manually by typing in the hex key manually, or you can type
in a passphrase in the “Passphrase” field and click “Generate” to
create a key.
A hex (hexadecimal) key is a combination of numbers and letters from
A–F and 0–9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys.
For instance:
C3 03 0F AF 0F 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 = 128-bit WEP key
