for greater wireless security, select the level of WEP encryption, 64 Bit Keys or 128 Bit Keys, and then enter
a Passphrase. If you use a Passphrase, a WEP key will be automatically generated after you click the Next
button. The Passphrase is case-sensitive and should have 16 alphanumeric characters or fewer. It must
match the passphrase of your wireless network and is compatible with Linksys wireless products only. (You
will have to enter the WEP key(s) manually on any non-Linksys wireless products.)
If you want to enter the WEP key manually, then leave the Passphrase field blank; you will be able to enter a
WEP key on the following screen. If you want to disable WEP encryption, keep the default, Disabled.
Click the Next button to continue.
