Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
security on a Belkin Router (or Belkin Access Point).
Solution:
1.
Log into your Wireless Router or (Access Point). Open your web
browser and type in the IP address of the Wireless Router (or Access
Point). (The Router’s default is 192.168.2.1, the 802.11g Access Point is
192.168.2.254.) Log into your Router by clicking on the “Login” button in
the top right-hand corner of the screen. You will be asked to enter your
password. If you never set a password, leave the “Password” field blank
and click “Submit”.
Click the “Wireless” tab on the left of your screen. Select the
“Encryption” or “Security” tab to get to the security settings page.
2.
Select “128-bit WEP” from the drop-down menu.
3.
After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can type in your hex
WEP key manually, or you can type in a passphrase in the “Passphrase”
field and click “Generate” to create a WEP key from the passphrase.
Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all of your clients to
match these settings. A hex (hexadecimal) key is a mixture of numbers
and letters from A-F and 0-9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter
26 hex keys.
For example:
C3 03 0F AF 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 E4 = 128-bit key
4.
Click “Apply Changes” to finish. Encryption in the Wireless Router is now
set. Each of your computers on your wireless network will now need to
be configured with the same security settings.
WARNING:
If you are configuring the Wireless Router (or Access Point)
from a computer with a wireless client, you will need to ensure that
security is turned on for this wireless client. If this is not done, you will
lose your wireless connection.
Note to Mac Users:
Original Apple AirPort products support 64-bit
encryption only. Apple AirPort 2 products can support 64-bit or 128-
bit encryption. Please check your Apple AirPort product to see which
version you are using. If you cannot configure your network with 128-bit
encryption, try 64-bit encryption.
