how to add WEP?

hi everyone,

I am working on a project. One part of this project is force the wireless
network adapter to connect to an access point. I am doing the following way:

1. Set Authentication Mode (0 for Open)
2. Set Infrastructure Mode (1 for Infrastructure)
3. Set SSID
4. Set WEP Key
5. Enable WEP

I found when I remove WEP from my AP, and comment out step 4 & 5, my PC
(actually Pocket PC)will connect to the AP. When I add WEP to AP, and run
steps 1 to 5, my PPC only have IP address like 169.254.xx.xx. The following
is how I add WEP and enable WEP:


/*Add WEP*/
NDIS_802_11_WEP WepKey;

UCHAR KeyMaterial[13];

/*The WEP key is ACDB95776DD114409AB54323C6.
The following steps will convert 26 Digit
Hex key to a 13 bit string*/
KeyMaterial[0] = 0xAC;
KeyMaterial[1] = 0xDB;
KeyMaterial[2] = 0x95;
KeyMaterial[3] = 0x77;
KeyMaterial[4] = 0x6D;
KeyMaterial[5] = 0xD1;
KeyMaterial[6] = 0x14;
KeyMaterial[7] = 0x40;
KeyMaterial[8] = 0x9A;
KeyMaterial[9] = 0xB5;
KeyMaterial[10] = 0x43;
KeyMaterial[11] = 0x23;
KeyMaterial[12] = 0xC6;



WepKey.KeyLength = sizeof(KeyMaterial);
WepKey.KeyIndex = 0;

memset(WepKey.KeyMaterial,0,sizeof(WepKey.KeyMaterial));
memcpy(WepKey.KeyMaterial, KeyMaterial, WepKey.KeyLength);
WepKey.Length = sizeof(WepKey);

if(!AddWEP(&WepKey)) return FALSE;

/* Set WEP status, Mode means enable or disable WEP*/
if(!SetWEPStatus(mode)) return FALSE;







The following is function AddWEP:

BOOL AddWEP(PNDIS_802_11_WEP pWEP)
{
UCHAR SetBuffer[sizeof(NDIS_OID) +
sizeof(PTCHAR)+sizeof(NDIS_802_11_WEP)];
PNDISUIO_SET_OID pSetOid;
DWORD dwBytesReturned=0;

pSetOid = (PNDISUIO_SET_OID) &SetBuffer[0];
pSetOid->Oid = OID_802_11_ADD_WEP;
pSetOid->ptcDeviceName = ptcDeviceName; /*this is because the application
runs on PPC*/

memcpy(&pSetOid->Data[0], (LPVOID)pWEP, sizeof(NDIS_802_11_WEP));

if (!DeviceIoControl(g_hNdisUio,
IOCTL_NDISUIO_SET_OID_VALUE,
(LPVOID)&SetBuffer[0],
sizeof(SetBuffer),
(LPVOID) &SetBuffer[0],
0,
&dwBytesReturned,
NULL))
{

long m_dwError = GetLastError();

TCHAR szOut[64];
wsprintf(szOut, TEXT("Can Not add WEP: %d" ),m_dwError );
MessageBox(0,szOut,TEXT("ERROR" ),MB_OK);
return FALSE;
}



return TRUE;
}


Does anyone know what is wrong with my code? I haven't been stuck here for a
couple of days...

Thanks,

Eric

I am not reinvent the wheel. I am trying to build the wheel again. And, if I
have to do it, anybody knows how to do it?

One reason might be that Pocket PC 2002 doesn't have native support for WEP
or Wireless Zero Config.
