Default Key – Select one of the four keys to encrypt your data. Only the key you select it in the “Default key” will take effect. Key 1 – Key 4 – The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted within the wireless network. Fill the text box by following the rules below. 64-bit WEP: input 10-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 5digit ASCII character as the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef“ or “Guest“.
TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security. AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the wireless network. Pre-shared Key Format – Select “Passphrase” or “Hex” key format.
