>> according to the man page of ifconfig in 6.0 the wepkey should be 5 or >> 13 characters > ^ascii > comes out to a bit more in hex :-) > just enter wepkey 309EFC5AB8 what do you mean? i'm confused now... sorry. the key is generated by the point - wireless router. and i get an hex string back.. no matter what i put in as password (or how many ascii characters) i always get the 128 bit hex. so when i try it with ifconfig i always get the same error - even without the index and the 0x... ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument > randy thanks...
