I thought the Gold card used >a different encryption scheme that was incompatabile with the standard >scheme that the Silver card uses. I routinely use a Cisco Aironet 340-series card (that is capable of "128-bit" (112 bits significant, if I recall correctly; what's at issue for this discussion is that it is >40 bits) WEP with an Apple Airport. I use it with WEP enabled, for that matter -- I just limit the key length on the Aironet card. Cheers, david -- David H.
