How to Configure WEP
when changing the wireless settings from a wireless computer, you will lose your wireless connection when you click apply. you must then either configure your wireless adapter to match the new wireless settings or access the wireless firewall/print server from a wired computer to make any further changes.
to configure wep data encryption, follow these steps:
1. log in at the default lan address of http://192.168.0.1 with the default user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever lan address and password you set up.
2. click the wireless link in the main menu of the fwg114p.
3. choose the authentication type and encryption strength options. you can manually or automatically program the four data encryption keys. these values must be identical on all pcs and access points in your network.

(2)manual - enter ten hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, a-f, or a-f)
these hex values are not case sensitive. select which of the four keys will be the default.
