Set Security "Set Security" lets you setup the wireless security for the data transmission between the bridged access points in "AP Bridge-WDS mode". It provides "WEP 64bits", "WEP 128bits", "WPA (TKIP)", "WPA2 (AES)" encryption methods. Parameter Encryption Key Format Description You can select "No encryption", "WEP 64bits", "WEP 128bits", "WPA (TKIP)" or "WPA2 (AES)" encryption methods. This is only used when you select "WEP 64bits" or "WEP 128bits" encryption method. You may choose to select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal Digits (in the 14 Wireless Range Extender (WL-130) Configuration "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key. For example: ASCII Characters: guest Hexadecimal Digits: 12345abcde WEP Key This is only used when you select "WEP 64bits" or "WEP 128bits" encryption method. The WEP key is used to encrypt data transmitted between the bridged access points. 64-bit WEP: input 10-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys. 128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 10-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
