I am just 'fighting' with those 2 items... Both do 128bit WEP under  
Windows. Under FreeBSD (3.4 release, device wi) I can not get WEP to  
work. I can only get a link if I disable WEP on the base station  
(independent of the settings on the laptop!). (And before someone asks:  
Yes, I did enter the key by hand and did not use the 'passphrase'  
feature on the base station. Firmaware is the latest available).
