WEP: An acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, WEP is an encryption scheme used to protect your
wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of 64-bit keys,128-bit keys to provide
access control to your network and encryption security for every data transmission. To decode a
data transmission, each wireless client on the network must use an identical 64-bit key,128-bit key.
NOTE: This feature is only available in Infrastructure Mode and must also be enabled on the
Access Point. Select the WEP tab to enable or disable this feature.
PS Mode: Power Saving Mode enables or disables the power saving features of your wireless

channel, clients will scan through all available channels searching for a network with matching SSID.
 Changing the Channel: Changing the channel is only effective in Ad-Hoc networks.
Networks operating in Infrastructure mode automatically scan for a channel. The following
table presents contains the operational channel frequency for several countries.
