Normally, this can be left on the default value of "Automatic". If you wish to set this to "Open System" or "Shared Key", ensure other Wireless stations use the same setting. |
WEP Keys |
- Default Key - select 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 Value - Enter the key value you wish to use. Other stations must have the same key.

Passphrase |
If desired, you can generate a key from a phrase, instead of entering the key value directly. Enter the desired phrase, and click the "Generate Keys" button. |
