In the Key Length field, select the required length of the WEP key.
Please bear in mind that all the components in a network must use the same key 
length to be able to communicate with each other.
Use a 128 bit key if all the network components support it. This offers greater 
security for the data in your network.

In the Key Type field, select the character format for creating keys:
– HEX 

The keys are entered as hexadecimal numbers. Only enter digits 0 to 9 and the 
letters A to F. A 128-bit key uses 26 hexadecimal numbers, a 64-bit key 
10 hexadecimal numbers.

– ASCII

13 characters and a 64-bit key 5 characters.

Once you have selected the key length and key type, you can either use a passphrase for 
automatic key generation or enter the key manually:
