I am currently fighting a 340 card and ap.  I have actually at this 
point flashed them both with 350 firmware and as I understand it the 
primary difference now is that I don't have as much power from them but 
I am trying to lower the broadcast power anyway as I don't have much 
distance to cover (100ft at most) and I want to limit exposure.  The 
problem I am having is that I can connect without wep but not with wep.  
On my winxp partition I can connect with wep fine.  Apparently there is 
some sort of problem with the firmware vs the sample code/documentation 
that cisco provides so that the driver is not able to handle wep.  
Reading through the list I got the impression that an older firmware 
that might get wep to work but I didn't see a version (could have easily 
overlooked it with the sheer volume I was going through). 
Lewis, is there a way to search the archives?
