Re: [NTLK] [ntlk]converting WEP passwrods to HEX

I couldnšt get WEP security to work with Hiroshišs drivers, trying to
convert to hex or trying to use a string key, so I changed my security to
MAC filtering,. Youšve got to allow the addresses that you want in the
router config page (for me itšs 192.168.1.1). For the Newton, the address is
shown on the back of my Lucent Wifi card. And of course youšve got to allow
your own computer too.
Hope this helps.
