Description
Select these keys for use with Encryption Mode set to 64-bit
encryption. Enter 5-byte values for a Key. You do not have to set all
four Keys. Only one Key is used for a home network. Each value is
represented in hexadecimal. Use only these numbers or letters: 0, 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, a, b, c, d, e, and f to set up your encryption keys.
Note: It is generally a good practice to use only lowercase letters
when entering WEP encryption keys. Uppercase letters can
sometimes be confused with numbers. For example, the uppercase
letter ―B‖ is often mistaken for the number ―8.‖ Using lowercase
characters minimizes the risk of confusing characters when copying
keys from one device to another. Uppercase characters will
automatically be converted to lowercase when the key or keys are
applied and saved to memory.
Use two numbers or letters in each box. Record your Key values.
You will need these Key values when you set up your client
wireless adapter. The Key values in each wireless network device
must match.
