3-4. Encryption
To prevent unauthorized user to access the data on wireless stations, the Wireless LAN
Card offers a highly secure data encryption, known as WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy).
If you require high security in transmission, go to the Encryption tab and set it up as
follows(see Figure 3-5).
Figure 3-5. Encryption
¾ Pull down the Encryption menu and select either 64bit or 128bit encryption method.
¾ Specify the encryption keys. There are two methods to set the WEP password, as
¾ Specify the encryption keys. There are two methods to set the WEP password, as
described below:
From the WEP encryption item, pull down the menu and it will list three options:
Disable – Allows the communication between the wireless LAN card and Access Point
without data encryption.
without data encryption.
64 Bit –Allows wireless LAN card to encrypt data with the 64-Bit encryption algorithm.
128 Bit –Allows wireless LAN card to encrypt data with the 28-Bit encryption algorithm.
The Encryption tab enables you to identify up to 4 different encryption passwords and
select one of them to encrypt your transmission data. The password of your choice may
either be:
For 64-bit encryption:
Five alphanumeric characters in the range of “a-z”, “A-Z” and “0-9” (e.g. MyKey)
10 hexadecimal values in the range of “0-F” (e.g. 11AA22BB33).
