128-Bit WEP Encryption

2. After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can enter your
key manually by typing in the hex key manually, or you can type
in a passphrase in the “Passphrase” field and click “Generate” to
create a key.
A hex (hexadecimal) key is a combination of numbers and
letters from A–F and 0–9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26
