    Wireless Security 
    CNet Smart Wireless-G Router provides encryption types: (A) WEP (B) WPA     

(A)  WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) 
 

 

 
Transmit Key 

Select which WEP key (1-4) will be used when the Router sends data. Make sure 

the receiving device is using the same key. 
 
WEP Encryption 

Select the level of WEP encryption you wish to use, 64-bit 10 hex digits or 

. Higher encryption levels offer higher levels of security, but due to the 

complexity of the encryption, they may decrease network performance. 
 
Passphrase 

Instead of manually entering WEP keys, you can enter a Passphrase. This 

Passphrase is used to generate one or more WEP keys. It is case-sensitive and should not be 
longer than 16 alphanumeric characters. (This Passphrase function is compatible with CNet 
wireless products only. If you want to communicate with non-CNet wireless products, enter the 
WEP key manually on the non-CNet wireless products.) After you enter the Passphrase, click the 
Generate 

button to create WEP keys. 

 
Keys 1-4 

WEP keys enable you to create an encryption scheme for wireless LAN transmissions. If 

you are not using a Passphrase, then manually enter a set of values. (Do not leave a key field 
blank, and do not enter all zeroes. These are not valid key values.) 
 
If you are using 64-bit WEP encryption, then the key must be exactly 10 hexadecimal characters in 
length. If you are using 128-bit WEP encryption, then the key must be exactly 26 hexadecimal 
characters in length. Valid hexadecimal characters are “0”-“9” and “A”-“F”. 
 
Check all the values, and click the Apply button to save your WEP settings. To cancel any 
changes you’ve entered on this page, click the Cancel button. To get more information about the
