Actually, t-mobile acts like an open network and redirects the user to an 
authenticaiton page to enter their subscription information. They don't use WEP 
or WPA. I will try the WPA test on my home netwrok. WEP has worked with Ubuntu 
7.04. WPA is a preferred method as it's more secure. I have noted that in the 
WEP case, you must put the actual hex values for the key. The ASCII pass phrase 
does not get translated to the proper hex values.

Subject: [Bug 67788] Re: WEP Key for one SSID carries over to all SSIDs


When you say that your WEP key shows up as ********, where are you
looking?

I'm wondering if this is the same issue that I'm seeing in bug 73759.
When you are trying to connect to, e.g., t-mobile, and network-manager
is attempting to use a WEP key (from your home or wherever), does it
succeed in making a connection?  Or do you have to *unset* the WEP key
before any connection will be successfully made?
