Use the same WEP Key(s) on all of the 802.11b devices on your network.
Note:
In order to communicate when WEP is enabled, all 802.11b devices on the
same network must use the same default WEP Key.
For 40 bit encryption, the WEP Key is expressed as 5 sets of two hexadecimal digits (0-9
and A-F).  The Harmony 802.11b Access Point can support up to four 40-bit WEP
Keys.  You must select one of these keys as the default key that the Access Point will
use to encrypt and decrypt authentication packets and data.
For 128 bit encryption, the WEP Key is expressed as 13 sets of two hexadecimal digits
(0-9 and A-F).  The Harmony 802.11b Access Point can support up to four 128-bit WEP
Keys.  You must select one of these keys as the default key that the Access Point will
use to encrypt and decrypt authentication packets and data.
Advanced Settings
The Advanced Settings tab allows you to configure the parameters described below.
Supported Rates
The IEEE 802.11b specification supports four data rates: 11 Mbps, 5.5 Mbps, 2 Mbps,
and 1 Mbps.  As a mobile client travels further and further away from an 802.11b Access
Point, the data rate automatically decreases in order to maintain a usable radio connec-
tion.  Therefore, a client that is close to an Access Point may operate a 11 Mbps, but a
client that is far away from the Access Point may operate at 2 Mbps.
By default, the Harmony 802.11b Access Point supports all four data rates.  However,
you can prevent the Access Point from using a specified data rate by unchecking the
appropriate box.
For example, if your application requires that the Harmony 802.11b PC Card maintains
an 11 Mbps data rate, you can uncheck the 5.5 Mbps, 2 Mbps, and 1 Mbps options.  The
Access Point and PC Card will always attempt to operate at 11 Mbps but this may
