Security Mode

Select St at ic W EP to enable data encryption.

PassPhrase

Enter a Passphrase (up to 26 printable characters) and click Generat e. 

A passphrase functions like a password. In WEP security mode, it is further converted by 
the WRE6606 into a complicated string that is referred to as the “key”. This key is 
requested from all devices wishing to connect to a wireless network.

WEP Encryption

Select 6 4 - bit s or 1 2 8 - bit s.

This dictates the length of the security key that the network is going to use.

Authentication 
Method

Select Aut o or Shared Key from the drop-down list box.

This field specifies whether the wireless clients have to provide the WEP key to login to 
the wireless client. Keep this setting at Aut o unless you want to force a key verification 
before communication between the wireless client and the WRE6606 occurs. 

Select Shared Key to force the clients to provide the WEP key prior to communication. 

ASCII

Select this option in order to enter ASCII characters as WEP key. 

Hex

Select this option in order to enter hexadecimal characters as a WEP key. 

The preceding "0x", that identifies a hexadecimal key, is entered automatically.

Key 1 to Key 4

The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the WRE6606 and the wireless stations 
must use the same WEP key for data transmission.

If you chose 6 4 - bit s, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal characters 
("0-9", "A-F").

If you chose 1 2 8 - bit s, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-
9", "A-F"). 

You must configure at least one key, only one key can be activated at any one time. The 
default key is key 1.
