Chapter 4: XPress DR+W
XPress DR+ User Guide 39
Passphrase input is not the same as ASCII input. The passphrase input is
safer because it has up to 63 characters. ASCII input has a maximum of 5
(WEP64) or 13 (WEP128) characters and limits the number of key
combinations.
TX Key index selects the WEP key used for transmissions. Enter a value
between 1 and 4. The default setting is 1. In case the WEP key is entered in hex,
all keys (1-4) are the same. In case the WEP key is entered as a passphrase, the
4 WEP keys are generated according to the Linksys algorithms and will be
different.
WPA
This firmware version allows only Pre-Shared Keys (PSK) for authentication.
Select Y (Yes) at the Display current key prompt to show the currently configured
key/passphrase,
Select Y (Yes) at the Change key prompt to be able to modify the currently configured
key by selecting Y (Yes).
The Key type requests whether the new key is in hexadecimal or passphrase format.
The default setting is Passphrase.
Enter key prompts for the new passphrase or hexadecimal key.
Key Type Encryption Key
Hex Enter the Encryption Key as a hexadecimal value according the following
guidelines:
Valid Hex alphanumeric characters are 0-9 and A-F.
64 Bit Hex = 5 Bytes represented as xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
Example: 01-A3-47-E5-C9
128 Bit Hex = 13 Bytes represented as xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-
xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx.
Example: A1-B2-C3-E4-D5-F6-98-74-B7-65-A8-D3-F2
Passphrase
Enter the key as a string. A passphrase is a sentence that is translated into
hex by a hashing algorithm.
Example: My dog has spots and likes to chase cats.
A passphrase of more than 20 characters is recommended. Maximum length
is 63 characters, including spaces and punctuation characters.
Passphrase input is not the same as ASCII input. The passphrase input is
safer because it has up to 63 characters. ASCII input has a maximum of 5
(WEP64) or 13 (WEP128) characters and limits the number of key
combinations.
