Hey,
I'm having some trouble getting my Wireless card to speak to my access point with WEP encryption enabled. I'm running a default 7.1 install with [snip] I want to do at the current moment. The Access Point is the Linksys WAP11, and the card is WPC11, and both work fine under Windows with 128 bit WEP, but the card doesn't work with WEP under linux.
Anyhelp is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Try setting up the Linux card to use 40-bit (64-bit) WEP - the WAP11 is 40-bit WEP only (unless they have improved them recently). Check the LinkSys site for new firmware, too.
It doesn't work with either 40 or 128. and the newest firmware for the WAP does support 128 bit.
Also, search for "airsnort" on a seach engine :)
Yeah, I know about airsnort, but have had major problems even getting it to compile, and I'm sure there is a "real" way of figuring out the key, instead of cracking what is running. -- Phillip Beal pdbeal01@louisville.edu
