Configure WEP Legacy WiFi Security
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security is a legacy authentication and data encryption
mode that is superseded by WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK. WEP limits the WiFi transmission
speed to 54 Mbps (the router is capable of higher speeds in the 2.4 GHz band).
Tip: If you want to change the WiFi settings of the router’s main network, use a wired
connection to avoid being disconnected when the new WiFi settings take effect.
To configure WEP security:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
