and it can be taken effect.
11. Encrypt Type - WEP
There are two types of encrypt type can be selected, including WEP and WPA.
WEP Encryption:
Enabling WEP can protect your data from eavesdroppers. If you do
not need this feature, select “None” to skip the following setting. The Palm Server Router
supports both 64-bit and 128-bit encryption using the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
algorithm. Select the type of encryption you want to use (64 or 128 bit) and configure one to
four WEP Keys. The “1280bit” method is more secure than the “64-bit”.
Key Type:
For 64bits WEP key, either 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digitals
leading by
0x
can be entered. For 128bits WEP key, either 13 ASCII characters or 26
hexadecimal digits leading by
0x
can be entered.
Note:
128 bits WEP is most secure, but has more encryption/decryption overhead. Note that all wireless
devices must support the same WEP encryption bit size and have the same key. Four keys can be
entered here, but only one key can be selected at a time. The keys can be entered in ASCII or
Hexadecimal. Select the item from drop-down list you wish to use.
Pass phrase:
Automatically generate four WEP keys. A WEP key is either 10 or 26
hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, and A~F) based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit in the
WEP drop-down menu. Type a combination of up to 64 letters, numbers, or symbols in the
blank, the Palm Server Router uses an algorithm to generate four WEP keys for encryption. If
you want to type in the keys manually, leave this filed blank.
Note: This function eases users from having to remember their passwords. But this isn’t as secure as manual
assignment.
WEP Key: At most four keys can be set. A WEP key is either 10 or 26 hexadecimal digits
(0~9, a~f, and A~F) based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit in the WEP drop-down list.
The Palm Server Router must have at least the same default key.
