Figure 25   Prestige Wireless Security Levels

If you do not enable any wireless security on your Prestige, your network is accessible to any 
wireless networking device that is within range. 

Use the Prestige web configurator to configurator to set up your wireless LAN security 
settings. Refer to the chapter on using the Prestige web configurator to see how to access the 
web configurator.

WEP encryption scrambles the data transmitted between the wireless stations and the access 
points to keep network communications private. It encrypts unicast and multicast 
communications in a network. Both the wireless stations and the access points must use the 
same WEP key for data encryption and decryption. 

Your Prestige allows you to configure up to four 64-bit, 128-bit or 256-bit WEP keys but only 
one key can be enabled at any one time. 

In order to configure and enable WEP encryption; click Wireless LAN and Wireless to the 
display the Wireless screen.

Note: If you are configuring the Prestige from a computer connected to the 
wireless LAN and you change the Prestige’s ESSID or WEP settings, you will 
lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must 
then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the Prestige’s 
new settings.
