Call me crazy, but I'm trying to get a MN-720 card to talk
to an Apple Airport base station. Has anyone gotten this
to work? The setup wizard recognizes the wireless
network, but when I type in the WEP Security key it spends
a long time trying to connect and then fails. Any
suggestions?

Ok, here's the answer to my own question, in case anyone
is interested. The WEP security key that you type in the
setup wizard is NOT the WEP network password that you
enter in the Apple Airport Admin utility. You have to
open the Airport Admin utility, enter the password for the
base station, and then click on the Password icon that
appears on the toolbar. This will display the "equivalent
network password", which is the value that must be entered
in the WEP security key field in the MN-720 setup wizard.
