Infrastructure mode is used when each Wireless station
connects to the Wireless Access point. This also provides
access to the wired LAN.

WEP Data Privacy
Off
If OFF (default), data is NOT encrypted before being
transmitted.
64 Bit Encryption
If selected, data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. The receiving station must be set to 64 Bit
Encryption, and have the same Key value in the same position in
its key table. Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.
Default KeySelect the key you wish to be the default.
Transmitted data is ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key;
the other Keys are for decryption only.
Key Table
This table is used when Encrypting and Decrypting data. All
stations, including this Access Point, always transmit data
encrypted using their default key. The key number (1, 2, 3, 4) is
also transmitted. The receiving station will use the key number
(1, 2, 3, 4) to determine which key value to use for decryption. If
the key value does not match the transmitting station,
decryption will fail. The easiest way to ensure there are no
problems is to have every Station, including the Access Point,
use the same key table (all entries identical). Then, it does not
matter which key is used as the default key.
128 Bit Encryption
If selected, data is encrypted using the key before being
transmitted. The receiving station must be set to use 128 Bit
Encryption, and have the same Key value. Otherwise, it will not
be able to decrypt the data.
Key
Enter the key value you wish to use. Other stations must have
the same key
WEP Authentication
Options are "Open System" or "Shared Key".Some Wireless
cards do not support both methods. Check your Wireless card's
documentation to determine the correct value.Ensure that all
Wireless stations use the same setting as the Access Point.
