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superseded by WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.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).
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.
