4.4.3.2  WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encrypts data frames before transmitting them over the 
wireless network. Select 64-bit or 128-bit from the WEP Encryption drop-down list box 
and then follow the on-screen instructions to set up the WEP keys. 
Choose an encryption level from the drop-down list. The higher the WEP encryption, the 
higher the security but the slower the throughput.
You can generate or manually enter a WEP key.
• If you selected 64-bit or 128-bit WEP, you can enter a Passphrase (up to 16 printable 
characters) and click Generate. The device automatically generates WEP keys. One key 
displays in the Key 1 field. Go to Wireless > Security if you want to see the other WEP 
keys.
