Is the WEP KEY the same as the Router PASSWORRD or the ENCRYPTION KEY?

It's not the same as the router password, but it is the same as the wireless encryption key.

Note that WEP keys can be entered as a code phrase or a bunch of hexadecimal digits (the phrase will get translated into the digits). But many systems don't take the phrase; they only accept the digits.

If you have a choice, you should use WPA instead of WEP. WEP is not very secure; WPA is better in that regard.

The password uses words, not numbers and letters, unless you choose to use numbers and letters. The WEP key generates a series of numbers and letters to gain access to the router.

The wep key is a password required to connect to the router and then the internet.

The router password is a password to allow access to the Routers Setup.

Both completely Different.

WEP by the way is very insecure, and easily hacked use WPA
