I have a Linksys WPC11, revision 3 802.11b card which gets along just fine with my Linksys 802.11g AP, using 64-bit WEP. The office is another story. I've checked and checked and checked the WEP key (different key, also 64-bit), and although dstumbler can report signal strengths, and the card associates with the AP, *and* tcpdump shows all the layer 2 and 3 traffic you could want, dhclient cannot acquire an address for it. The office APs are made by Agere Systems (Lucent internals), and other users with Linksys WPC11's can connect just fine. Anyone know what's wrong? Neither google nor searching the mailing lists provided an answer. (While I'm on the subject, is there a "right" way to set up wicontrol so that it picks up your WEP keys at startup time, or do you have to roll your own script, e.g., /usr/local/etc/000.wi.sh?)
