Hi

Does anybody know how I can:

1) Set up my e61 to access my home wireless broadband on a perm basis (ie an access point)

2) Save my wep key which is 26 characters long.

I did manage to get to this screen once to save the access point or define it (dont know how I got there) and the white box to type the password would only take several characters.

PS. I have an airport express so on my Mac network my password is a word but its spits out a hex equivilant for a non-mac device.

Cheers.. Mr.Spankey

Hi

Does anybody know how to input a password into the password screen when defining an access point.

I know how to get there but when it asks for the password it only allows me to input several letters and the password (which is generically HEX generated) is 26 characters long.

Im doing my head in on this one

Thanks

Mr.Spankey, ASCI allows 13 cgaracters, Hexidecimal allows 26. Therefore you want to select Hex. With this setting you're allowed the following characters:

0,1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F
