Re: Wireless Question

["Tomas Wolf" <tomas () skip cz>]

I might have an idea. If you enter WORD as a wep base-key (some call it password), some devices produce different hex 
output... I don't know why though. Some might manipulate that entered wep-word and then translate it to hex, some just 
translate to hex... It might be setup-dependable, or not - in my case I couldn't find any wep-basekey convertion 
algorythm setup... So just enter default hex values and see...

 Other problem might be the form. On my AP I have to put 0xNN format with "-" after each second number, while my sta 
takes just hex values with ":" after each as a separator. And the third is just a long string of hex values - which is 
the most convenient way I guess :-).

If I think of something else, I'll let you know.
Good luck -- Tomas
