WEP :
WEP is the wireless encryption standard. To use it you must enter the same key(s) into the AP and the wireless stations. For 64 bit keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each key box. For 128 bit keys you must enter 26 hex digits into each key box. A hex digit is either a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F. For the most secure use of WEP set the authentication type to "Open Key" when WEP is enabled.
You may also enter any text string into a WEP key box, in which case it will be converted into a hexadecimal key using the ASCII values of the characters. 5 text characters can be entered for 64 bit keys, and 13 characters for 128 bit keys.
