Both the AP and the wireless stations must use the same WEP key to encrypt and decrypt data. Your P-330W allows you to configure up to four 64-bit or 128-bit WEP keys, but only one key can be enabled at any one time. 5.7.3 Configuring WEP Encryption In order to configure and enable WEP encryption; click the SECURITY link under WIRELESS to display the Wireless Security screen.
