About passphrase:

• This radio supports secured access points using the Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) standards.

• WEP keys are either 10 or 26 characters long (e.g. 6E78214A52). Note that some Wi-Fi routers support passphrase generation for WEP security. However, there is no industry standard for WEP passphrase generation and

this radio does not support WEP passphrases.

• If you are using a WEP secured access point, enter the WEP key (HEX format) instead of the passphrase.
