Hi all,

Got a Belkin access point and 2 network card, 1 for laptop and 1 for the pc.
Set-up the 128 bit encryption on the access point fine and then on the
laptop card fine, when I came to the pc card I did not have the same menu's
to put it in to. Instead of putting in my code it asks for a network key of
different lengths which don't match my code length.

Can anyone help as to where I am going wrong

Thanks

Glenn

1. Find out if you must enter the keys in ASCII or hex. Big difference in
key length.

2. Ensure that it wants the "network key" and not the number of the key
(your probably can enter up to 5 keys ot so).

On the 128 bit encryption it asks for a key but on the naff card it want to
choose ascii or something else and does not tie up with the network card in
the laptop which is the same as the access point
