Securing Your Wireless Network with WEP
WEP is a security protocol for wireless networks. WEP provides security by
encrypting data over radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one
end point to another. A shared key (similar to a password) is used to allow
communication between the computers and the residential gateway. WEP offers a
basic, but satisfactory level of security for wireless data transmission.
To secure your wireless network with Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP), complete
the following steps.
