In ADD WEP key in my router settings each pair of numbers/letters is
seperated by a hyphen, when I am asked to add that same key to a client pc
using a netgear usb adapter it doesn't accept the hyphen as part of the key.
Do I just add the whole 26 number/letter combo as is or do I add aspace
between each pair?

Hi,
Don't specify spaces, hyphens or any other character in the WEP key.
