[Voyage-linux] WEP keys setup problem

[Kim-man "Punky" TSE]

Hi Keith,

I did not have much experience in WEP so I used my limited knowledge in
replying your questions:

- First read hostap-driver readme as in:
http://hostap.epitest.fi/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/hostap/README?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain
- what hostap firmware do you use? check with hostap_diag.
- use hostap_crypt_conf instead of iwconfig to see if there is difference.
