Secure your wireless network
Configuration > Basic Setting > Wireless
After you have determined which security type to use for your wireless network (see
“How to choose the security type for your wireless network” on page 13), you can set up
wireless security.
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on
page 50).
2. Click on Configuration at the top of the page, then click on Basic Setting, and click on
Wireless.
3. Click on the Authentication drop-down list to select your wireless security type.
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
To select and configure WEP, select Open (Recommended), Shared, or Auto in the
Authentication drop-down list.
Note: It is recommended to use Open System because it is known to be more secure than
Shared Key. Selecting Auto will automatically determine which authentication type to
use between Open and Shared Key.
Then click on the Encryption drop-down list and select WEP.
• WEP Key 1-4 – Choose a key index 1,2,3, or 4.
Note: The Key Index # must also match when configuring wireless devices to
connect to your wireless network.
• Choose HEX or ASCII.
Note: It is recommended to use ASCII because of the much larger character set
that can be used to create the key.
• Enter a WEP Key.
Note: Once you select HEX or ASCII, you will need to enter the WEP key using
the HEX or ASCII format described in the table below.
WEP Key Format

Character set 0-9 & A-F, a-f only alphanumeric (a,b,C,?,*, /,1,2, etc.)
