Linksys WRT54GS WRE54G - WEP keys question

Oct 10, 2007 0 Replies

Easy question for most of you.



I set up WEP 64 bit 10 hex security for my Linksys router and separate Range Extender.



They both are set to use the same passkey/phrase and have the same SSID.



This is in my house so I do not need a lot of security. Just keeping others from freeloading on my WiFi, which is happening.



Question: 4 keys are generated and are the same on the router and the Range Extender.


*****Can the same key be used by more than one wireless device (laptop, TiVo, Squeezebox,etc)??

Or do I need to use key 1 for one device, key 2 for another ,etc..



Thanks so much Patty
