11.3.5.4 802.1x WEP
If you select 802.1x WEP in the Stations Security Type drop-down list, the following screen will appear. The
802.1x WEP feature allows you to enable WEP keys for wireless security. In addition, 802.1x WEP security uses a
Remove Authentication Dial-in Service (RADIUS) server for authentication purposes. The server must be physically
connected to the Router. The Router’s card supports 40-bit or 104-bit WEP encryption. If 802.1x WEP is used, any
station can connect to the Router as long as its SSID and WEP key values match the Router’s values.
NOTE: Client PCs can use any Wireless 802.11b/g card to communicate with the Router. By default your Router is
configured (enabled) for 802.1X WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) security. Whenever, WEP is configured, the PC’s
wireless card must use the same WEP security code type as the one provided in Router. The WEP security code is
located on a label on the bottom of the Router. Always check that your PC’s wireless adapter is configured properly
for whichever network setting you use: WEP or WPA. You can configure the settings in the advanced properties of
the PC’s wireless network adapter.
