Open System
and Shared Key. When you select Open System, no
authentication is applied (however, encryption is supported). When you select
Shared Key
, a WEP key is used for authentication. The default setting is
Open System
.
Data Encryption (WEP)
: The IEEE 802.11 WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
standard defines two levels of encryption, a 64-bit key (this is sometimes
represented by 40bits) and a 128-bit key.
Key index:
Select the current encryption key index used by the access point
out of 1 to 4.
To use pass phrase:
Click Use pass phrase to activate, and enter 5 (for 64-
bit) or 13 (for 128-bit) alphanumeric characters (represented by 0-9, a-z, or A-Z).
To use WEP key:
Click Use WEP keys to activate, and enter a hexadecimal
number (represented by 0-9 and A-F) of 10 (for 64-bit) or 26 (for 128-bit)
digits in the WEP key field.
