Using WEP Encryption In the "Configuration" menu, click "Encryption". Select "64-bit" from the drop-down menu. You will notice when using 64-bit encryption, there are four keys labeled "Key 1" through "Key 4". Keys can be entered manually, but for ease-of-use, the software can generate keys using a "passphrase" that you enter. This passphrase can be easily distributed to wireless-equipped computer users in your network. For instance, creating a key using the passphrase "Passphrase" generates four keys in 64-bit encryption mode and one key in 128-bit encryption mode. Users of laptops need only to enter the passphrase and the key number into their computers' wireless management software to be able to communicate while using encryption. All computers on the network must use the same encryption rate and passphrase. The passphrase can be changed as often as desired. 18 Using the Belkin Wireless Access Point Manager Setting 64-bit Encryption 1. Enter the new password, then confirm it.
