Chapter 15 - Entering an encryption key
A WEP encryption key protects your wireless network against intrusion by encrypting the data
sent through your network. Its setting must be the same for all PCs and devices in your
wireless network. (Default: Disabled.)
WEP key conversion table
The WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) implemented in this SL400i is based on the RC4
encryption algorithm. Please, enter the key in either Hex or ASCII.
– If the key type is Hex, the security keys are four 10 digit keys for the 64-bit WEP setting
and four 26-digit keys for the 128-bit WEP setting. (The hexadecimal digits can be 0~9 &
A~F, e.g. D7 0A 9C 7F E5.)
– If the key type is ASCII, the security keys are four 5-digit keys for the 64-bit WEP setting
and four 13-digit keys for the 128-bit WEP setting.
– Consult the ASCII/HEX conversion table if you need to translate a (case-sensitive) ASCII
key into HEX notation. Example: MNode (ASCII) = 4D 4E 6F 64 65 (HEX).
Note: Some wireless network devices allow you to type in a passphrase instead of an encryption key.
Do not use passphrases with the SL400i, since passphrases are not supported.
Tip: Enable the encryption key to secure your wireless computer network from intruders.
Use an encryption key to secure your wireless network.The encryption key is like a
password that you have to set for your Wireless USB Adapter and for the SL400i.
a) Setting the encryption key for the SL400i:
1 Press the MENU button on the remote control, then
2 select ‘Network’, and
3 select ‘Encryption Config’.
4 Enable WEP Encryption, and enter a 5, 10, 13 or 26 character password (see above) and
press the OK button.
> The SL400i will try to reconnect to the wireless network and will lose its connection
with your computer.
Note that the encryption key is case sensitive, meaning that ‘HELLO’ is not the same password
as ‘hello’ or ‘Hello’.
