WEP in general works; my AP at home is configured as WEP and the entries
in wpa_supplicant.conf are nearly the same, only the key differs:
# my home
#
network={
ssid="tarara"
scan_ssid=0
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_tx_keyidx=0
wep_key0=xxxxxxxxxx
}
# Restaurante Odyssee (2007-11-18)
#
network={
ssid="ConnectionPoint"
scan_ssid=0
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_tx_keyidx=0
wep_key0=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
}
but I will configure another AP to also use the same wep_key0, if you
think that the problem could depend on the key itself;
and I will check if I could get somewhere this model of AP for a test;
