encryption using the manual method described in the next section.
1. Select “128-bit WEP” or “64-bit WEP” from the drop-down menu.
2. After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can enter your WEP
key manually by typing in the hex values in the space provided, or you
can type a passphrase in the “PassPhrase” field and click “Generate” to
create a WEP key from the passphrase. Click “Apply Changes” to finish.
You must now set all of your clients to match these settings.
3. Encryption in the Router is now set. Each of your computers on
your wireless network will now need to be configured with the
same passphrase. Refer to the documentation of your wireless
network adapter for information on making this change.
