With a WEP key, there is an option to generate the key from a
passphrase as well as entering in the long list of characters and
numbers - which method are you using?
I tried both, entering the paraphrase in Key #1 and generating with the
paraphrase using using Neesus Datacom generator
My experience is that using WEP key passphrases does not work because the
different programs do not generate the same keys. To enter a hex key into
XWLAN you must precede the hex key with 0x otherwise it assumes that a
passphrase was entered.
the Neesus generator does precede each key with 0x when it operates on
the paraphrase. It generates 4 hex keys each preceded by 0x.
