Channel Authentication Encryption Type WPA Pre-Shared Key WEP Key Length WEP Key Format Default Key WEP Key 1- 4 When you select a wireless access point above, it‟s SSID will be filled in this field automatically. However, if the SSID is not displayed (the wireless access point you selected choose to hide it‟s SSID), you have to know it‟s SSID and input it here, or you will not be able to connect it.

You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit. Larger WEP key length will provide higher level of security, but the data throughput will be lowered. You can select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal Digits ("A-F", "a-f" and "0-9") to be the WEP Key. For example: ASCII Characters: guest Hexadecimal Digits: 12345abcde Select one of the four keys to encrypt your data. Only the key you select it in the "Default key" will be used.
