Julian,

I also have a T60 and have used GenMac for the WiFi with a Linksys
with:

WEP-64
WPA-PSK

I tried WEP-128 on a combined DSL/router/AP. [I don't know the brand,
but I can try to find out.]  It did not work, but I'm not sure I had
the key set correctly and the person that set it in the AP was not
available to help.  I do know that the AP only seemed to support WEP-64
and WEP-128, so I suspect it was a rather old box.  FWIW, I could not
get an A30p [not using GenMac] to work using WEP-128 with this DSL box
either.

This seems to confirm some of what you've found.  

Carl
