I recently came across a situation with a router that required a
104-bit WEP key. I was told the router was a "travel" router, not
being capable of 128-bit WEP encryption. I could not get it to work
using the assigned shorter key with eCS in 128-bit encryption mode.
If my information -- which I consider reliable -- is correct, can we
have 104-bit encryption added?
It might be the same as 128bit; I recall some info that, out of the
128 bits, only 104 bits are really a 'key', as the other bits were too
simple to figure out. So, 128bit and 104bit might be two terms for the
same thing.
The key I use for my '128bit' WEP encryption at home is 13 hex bytes
long... 104 bit!
