That's weird. My working wpa_supplicant.conf doesn't have "wep_tx_keyidx"
and has only one wep_key set:
network={
ssid="GoodNeighbour"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_key0="11111"
}
FWIW, "11111" is the first ASCII WEP key set in my test AP(Buffalo
AirStation G54). The rest(key 2 ~ 4) were simply empty strings in my AP's
configuration.
