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?
104-bit is indeed 128-bit (there is a 24-bit header, hence, 40-bit encryption is called 64-bit). There is no such animal as 80-bit (plus a 24-bit header). :-)
(Hopefully, my auto-responder won't bounce to the list...)
