Configuring WEP
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish
wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to
the added overhead.
1. Log into the web-based configuration by opening a
web browser and entering the IP address of the router
(192.168.0.1). Click on Wireless Setup on the left side.
2. Next to Security Mode, select Enable WEP Wireless
Security (basic).
3. Next to Authentication, select either Shared Key or OpenOpen.
Shared Key is recommended as it provides greater security
when WEP is enabled.
4. Select either 64Bit or 128Bit encryption from the drop-down
menu next to WEP Encryption.
5. Next toNext to Default WEP Key, select WEP Key 1 and create
your own WEP key. Make sure you enter this key exactly
on all your wireless devices. You may enter up to four different keys either using Hex or ASCII. Hex is recommended
(only letters A-F and numbers 0-9 are valid). In ASCII all numbers and letters are valid..
6. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are conguring the router with a wireless adapter, you will lose
connectivity until you enable WEP on your adapter and enter the same WEP key as you did on the router.
