The WEP key should either be 10 or 26 alpha-numeric digits in length composed of the letters A thru f and the numbers 0 thru 9. It is, (Though it's not supposed to be) case sensitive. Normally, the WEP key doesn't require a password. In some cases, the network is both WEP encrypted and uses MAC address filtering. MAC address filtering is where the router or network gateway is given a list of "Authorized" computers that can access it. If your friend has utilized MAC address filtering, you'll need to give her the MAC address off of your wireless card (a 12 digit alpha-numeric number usually starting with "00"). Also, I've found it helpful NOT to use an assigned WEP key from my router but to create one of my own using only digits avoiding the case sensitivity issues. ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote -- No virus found in this incoming message.
