Right. It's not always a choice. I didn't mean to imply it didn't matter if WEP worked because people shouldn't use it. It ought to work. I know my 4965 laptop worked with WEP in Hardy because I was working on site at a customer for a while and the employee wireless network was WPA and the visitor's network was WEP.
