Authentication Type:
The ADSL Router supports two
authentication types: Open System
and Shared key. This should be
considered with the WEP (Wired
Equivalent Privacy) mechanism.

and Shared key. This should be

Open System means that it allows any client
to authenticate and attempt to communicate
with a bridge. The client can only
communicate if its WEP keys match the
router’s WEP keys.
to authenticate and attempt to communicate
with a bridge. The client can only
communicate if its WEP keys match the
router’s WEP keys.
Shared Key means that a bridge or router
will send an unencrypted text string to any
client attempting to communicate with the
router. The client requesting authentication
encrypts the text and sends back to the
router. Both unencrypted and encrypted can
be monitored, yet it leaves the bridge open to
be attacked by any intruder if he calculates
the WEP key by comparing the text strings.
That is why shared key authentication can be
less secure than open authentication.
