I am trying to connect to my aiport. I can connect whenever I don't have the
WEP set up on the airport, but when I turn the WEP protection on...the device
recongizes the Airport but when I use the password(ascii and hex), it still
doesn't log in... Any secrets to using password protection and airport
extreme with this adapter. ??

Help.

Have you put a $ before the WEP in the airport to
indicate a hexadecimal key? I haven't tried the airport
express, but other apple equipment requires a $ to enter
the key in hexadecimal. Windows uses only a hexadecimal
key (without the $).
