digit pairs. A hexadecimal digit consists of an alphanumeric character ranging
from 0-9 or A-F. An example of a 64-bit
WEP key is: 4E-A3-3D-68-72. To create
a set of 64-bit WEP keys, enter five hexadecimal digit pairs in each Key text box
(Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4). After activating 64-bit WEP on the Router, a com-
puter with wireless capability can join the network only if these same keys are
entered in the computer’s wireless encryption scheme.

128-bit WEP requires one key of 13 hexadecimal pairs. A hexadecimal digit con-
sists of alphanumeric characters ranging from 0-9 or A-F. An example of a 128-bit
WEP key is: 3D-44-FE-6C-A1-EF-2E-D3-C4-21-74-5D-B1. To create a 128-bit
WEP key, enter 13 hexadecimal digit pairs in the Key text box. After activating 128-
bit WEP on the Router, a computer with wireless capability can join the network
only if this key is entered in the computer’s wireless encryption scheme.
