Subject: [OS2Wireless] Encyrpted Network

I think there's a problem on the OS/2 client side, and most likely with 
the WEP keys. Setting the SSID in the config should alleviate any delay 
in finding the network. Sam, do you have complete control over the 
WEP-enabled AP, i.e., can you play with it by turning WEP off, enabling 
64-bit, etc? I'd like to narrow down whether this is a 128-bit WEP issue 
on the client side or whether this affects 64-bit, as well.

What card/firmware/driver combination are you using in the machine?
