parameters of the driver can be viewed or changed. Changes to any of
the parameters in this panel can be applied to the driver without a need
to restart the computer.
Encryption Tab
You may want an additional measure of security on your wireless
network, which can be achieved by using WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy) encryption. WEP encrypts each frame transmitted from the
radio using one of the Keys entered in this panel.
When an encrypted frame is received it will only be accepted if it
decrypts correctly. This will only happen if the receiver has the same
WEP Key used by the transmitter.
To be written to the driver and registry, each key must consist of hex
digits, which means that only digit 0-9 and letter A-F are valid entries.
You can set this to disable, 64 bits or 128 bits.

Configuration Utility, and NIC firmware version. Users must use this
