Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security
on a client card from MyEssentials (Wireless Network Card or Adapter).
Solution:
The client card must use the same key as the Wireless G Router or
access point. For instance, if your Wireless Router or access point uses
the key 00112233445566778899AABBCC, then the client card must be
set to the exact same key.
1.
Double-click the “Signal Indicator” icon to bring up the “Wireless
Networking Utility” screen. The “Advanced” button will allow you to view
and configure more options of your client card.
2.
Once the “Advanced” button is clicked, the Wireless Networking Utility
(WNU) from MyEssentials will appear. The WNU will allow you to manage
all the advanced features of the client card from MyEssentials.
3.
Under the “Wireless Network Properties” tab, select a network name
from the “Available Networks” list and click the “Properties” button.
4.
Under “Data Encryption”, select “WEP”.
5.
Ensure the box “The key is provided for me automatically” at the bottom
is unchecked. If you are using this computer to connect to a corporate
network, please consult your network administrator if this box needs to

A—F and 0—9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 keys. This
network key needs to match the key you assign to your Wireless G
Router or access point.
For example:
