That will stop is from working still... So I will just use WEP. What are the requirements for a WEP password? I thought it was like 5 letters and 5 digits? and I want it to read something specific, not random.
most of the routers available you can hide or not broadcast the SSID (Service Set Identifier) or known as network name of the network some computers will see that there is a network there but youll have to know the name of the network in order to get on OR youll have to manually create the network on your computer both of which ill be gladly to help
no wpa if i remember is like a min. of 8 letters or numbers and WEP encryption is 64bit encryption of 10 hex digits and 128 bit is 26 hex digits (hex digits combination of letters and numbers)
you can use a phrase but with WEP it "translates" the phrase to a hex number with letters so either way your not just going to be able to just put the phrase you want in and connect to the Net.
WPA is the only one that you can use a phrase as the WPA shared key
also if you could tell me the make and model number of the computer make and model of the wireless card, and make and model of the router with a version number so i can see if we can find some updates for your equipment so you can use WPA
