WEP Select 64-Bit or 128-Bit encryption.
Passphrase Enter a passphrase in the Passphrase
field, so a WEP key is automatically generated. It is case
sensitive and should not be longer than 16 alphanumeric
characters. This passphrase must match the passphrase
of your other wireless network devices and is compatible
with Linksys wireless products only. (If you have any non-
Linksys wireless products, enter the WEP key manually on
those products.)
WEP Key The WEP key you enter must match the WEP
key of your wireless network. For 64-Bit encryption,
enter exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128-Bit
encryption, enter exactly 26 hexadecimal characters. Valid
hexadecimal characters are “0” to “9” and “A” to “F”.

TX Key The default transmit key number is 1. If your
network’s access point or wireless router uses transmit key
number 2, 3, or 4, select the appropriate number from the
TX Key drop-down box.
Authentication The default is set to Auto, so it will
auto-detect for Shared Key or Open System authentication.
For Shared Key authentication, both the sender and the
recipient share a WEP key for authentication. For Open
System authentication, the sender and the recipient do
not share a WEP key for authentication. If you are not sure
which authentication method to select, keep the default,
Auto.
