Re: Problems with wireless network card

I select it, click on the connect button and
enter my WEP key ...

WEP Encryption has problems. Use the Hex key (26 characters) instead
of the ASCII equivalent and it will work. Different manufacturers
have different creative ideas of how to convert from ASCII to Hex.

However, you should not be using WEP. It's not very secure and is
easily cracked. Use WPA or WPA2 instead, with a long pass phrase.
