I'm using the hostap driver with my Senao wireless card. It works great
for connecting to open access points, but I've been stumped trying to
connect to my Linksys AP which requires 64 bit WEP. I see that WEP
passphrases are not supported, so I have to give the driver the key in
hex. Looking at the AP's config page, here are the keys as set currently:
Key 1: 244963698C
Key 2: F3FC1076CF
Key 3: D775A75FFA
Key 4: D474777C37
I tried various combinations of iwconfig and hostap_crypt_conf to get
WEP working, but in every case my card would not associate with the
access point. I have yet to find any sort of step by step instructions
for using this feature; could someone provide some? Many thanks,
/Owen
