A WEP crack refers to an individual gaining access to a locked or secured WEP access point. One can block this in their router settings by securing their internet with a password. One can also change their settings to allow only a range of IP address'. One can also try and block neighbor's IP address.

WEP and WPA protect your information from unauthorized access when you are using your wireless connection. Longer key harder to crack.

What is the WEP key for your DS Nintendo Wifi?

A WEP key has nothing to do with your DS system but the WEP key is the password that is needed for secured wireless modem networks when you're trying to set up the connection with other devices.

Where can you find a WEP key for your Nintendo DS without using a router?

That doesn't technically make sense - a WEP key is the password used to access an encrypted (one form of encryption at least) router. If you don't have a router, it makes no sense to ask for a WEP key - a WEP key to access what? It's like a key with no lock, the WEP key is for a router.So if there's no router, there's no point wanting a WEP key. If there is a router and you don't know the WEP key, then clearly it's someone else's router, and the encryption is precisely to stop unauthorised people using it.

What is the encryption key for wep?

Network signals broadcast by a router can be encrypted, and one method of security is WEP, Wired Equivalent Privacy. Encrypted signals help make sure only authorised people are using the router - this is done by having a WEP key. If a device knows the same WEP key as the router, then it is able to unencrypt the signal. If someone does not have access to the WEP key, it means they are unable to use the router.
