WEP 
Encryption
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) provides data encryption to prevent 
unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the 
wireless network. 
Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

If you chose 64-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter any 5 
characters (ASCII string) or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") 
preceded by 0x for each key.
If you chose 128-bit WEP in the WEP Encryption field, then enter 13 
characters (ASCII string) or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") 
preceded by 0x for each key.
There are four data encryption keys to secure your data from 
eavesdropping by unauthorized wireless users. Both the ZyXEL Device and 
the wireless stations must use the same WEP key for data transmission.
