Wep Encryption - Hama 00062765 Bedienungsanleitung

3.2.1 WEP encryption

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a standard encryption algorithm for WLAN. It both controls the access to
the network and guarantees the integrity of the data. This method is considered vulnerable due to a range of
weaknesses. Authentication is implemented using the shared key method.
If you use WEP encryption, select Pre-installed code (static WEP).
Click Configure.
WEP 64 bit ASCII requires 5 characters
WEP 64 bit HEX requires 10 characters
WEP 128 bit ASCII requires 13 characters
WEP 128 bit HEX requires 26 characters
WEP 152 bit ASCII requires 16 characters
WEP 152 bit HEX requires 32 characters
In the lower area, you can save 4 codes of which only one is used. This allows you to change the code
regularly if the other wireless LAN devices also support this. You can also enter just one code and use it all
the time.
The code selected under Transfer code is always transferred.
Sample codes:
64 bit Hex (10 characters) = 231074a6ef
64 bit ASCII (5 characters) = j31n!
128 bit Hex (26 characters) = 231074a6b9773ce43f91a5bef3
128 bit ASCII (13 characters) = urlaub2006!+0
Click OK to save your settings.

The entries you make here must be exactly the same as the
encryption data in the target network, i.e. in the wireless
LAN router/access point in infrastructure mode and as all
client WLAN devices in ad-hoc mode.
In the upper area of the window you can set the characters
which can be used for the code. Hexadecimal allows
characters from 0-9 and a-f. ASCII allows any characters
except spaces to be used. The setting and the selection of
either 64, 128 and 152 bit encryption determines the length
of the code to be entered.
