[lwlan-user] wep problem

[Steve Dondley]

Dhaval,

I don't have a Linksys wpc11 wireless card but I do have a Linksys wmp11
card (PCI card).  I had the same problem, however.  The card worked fine
without wep and only half worked with wep.

So I upgraded the card by installing it in my windows machine and flashed
the firmware with a download from Linksys.  This solved the problem.

So I'd try upgrading the firmware if you haven't already.  Good luck.
