Hi Douglas,

AFAIK most Access Points do this for you: You just configure the
connection type you want - WEP in this case, enter the password, and
the code is generated automatically. There's a website, too:

That might be a problem: If this is really a hub you need to use PPPoE
to connect to the internet. Don't know if the Newton can do this. In
this case all machines connected to the DSL hub have to open a
connection on their own, too.
Better use a router with several machines connecting simultaneously.
