Hi,

U need to setup the settings for this network. Go to
Connections settings and select your wireless network card
and then advanced. Write down the FULL wep key and not
the "wep-word" from the router (for me it only works with
128 bit wep, cause no 64 bit option on PPC). Type in the
long wep-key in the advanced settings.

Also you should define the connection to be used for the
internet.

Hope this helps.

I have Ipaq 4150 and a Linksys Wireless Router 11mbps.
