Figure 6-4: Search Chapter 6: Configuring the Wireless-G Music Bridge The Search Tab 26 Wireless-G Music Bridge The Security Tab Two methods of security are available if your network uses security: WEP and PSK. WEP is a basic encryption method, which is not as secure as PSK (Pre-Shared Key). WEP To use WEP encryption, select 40/64 bit (10 hex digits) or 104/128 bit (26 hex digit) from the drop-down menu, and enter a passphrase or WEP key. Instead of manually entering a WEP key, you can enter a passphrase in the Passphrase field, so a WEP key is automatically generated. This case-sensitive passphrase must match the passphrase of your other wireless network devices and is compatible with Linksys wireless products only. (If you have any non-Linksys wireless products, enter the WEP key manually on those products. ) WEP Key. The WEP key you enter must match the WEP key of your wireless network. If you are using 64-bit WEP encryption, then the key must consist of exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. If you are using 128-bit WEP encryption, then the key must consist of exactly 26 hexadecimal characters. Valid hexadecimal characters are "0" to "9" and "A" to "F". If your network's access point or wireless router uses transmit key number 2, 3, or 4, select the appropriate number from the TX Key drop-down box. The default is set to Auto, where it auto-detects for Shared Key or Open system. Shared Key is when both the sender and the recipient share a WEP key for authentication. Open key is when the sender and the recipient do not share a WEP key for authentication.

Passphrase - Enter a Passphrase, also called a pre-shared key, of 8-63 characters in the Passphrase field. .
