. To create a

enter 13 hexadecimal digit pairs in the Key: text box. After you activate

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.

☞

Note: If the WEP keys on the Router have been changed, the

WEP keys on any wireless clients must also be changed, or they
will not be able to access the Router.

DHCP Server

Selecting

DHCP

Server in the “Custom Setup” screen generates the “

DHCP

Server”

screen. The Router has a built-in

DHCP

(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

server that automatically assigns a different

IP

address to each computer on your

network, eliminating IP address conflicts.
The factory default setting is On. To disable the

DHCP

Server, select Off.
