I have just installed a 802.11g/b network in the house... a primer for
"future expansion".
I am using a Belkin wireless router as a WAP, a couple of Prism2 802.11b
PCMCIA cards and one Belkin 802.11b/g card.
The problem is that I have set up 64bit WEP encryption. Using the Prism
cards, I can connect to the network, using the Belkin card, I cannot. I get
a connection error that says that I must use a password, but I have already
set up the passphrase and got the HEX keycode. I even tried to enter just
the HEX keycode and not the phrase, same error code.
A call to Belkin tech support got nowhere.
I am able to connect to the network if I remove the WEP, but since I can see
three other networks, I really want to encrypt mine, especially since it is
a WAP and not a wireless router, it enters my network AFTER the firewall.
my config is (very simplied discription):
<WAN>---<cable modem>---<7 port router>-------<server>
|-<WAP>
|-<work stations>
|-<hub>
|-<print server>
suggestions????
