I have a 802.11g wireless card on a Sony Laptop running XP Home. It is a
TI chipset and a TI driver.

It's been working fine, but recently I wanted to add WEP to my network.
After adding it, my Mac simply asked me for the password the next time I
tried to connect and everything was fine.

However, the XP machine can't even see the network now. The wireless
network properties window doesn't look like the default one I see in
most screen shots when I google for this problem. I assume it may be due
to some odd setting with these particular drivers?

Here are all the options I have with this one:

Authentication Mode
CCX Security Type
Desired Basic Rate Set
Desired BSS Type
Desired IBSS Protection
Desired SSID
Desired Supported Rate Set
Desired TxPower
Desired TxRate
ELP Support
Fragmentation Threshold
Leap enabled
Leap username
mixed mode
mode 4x
multiregulartory domain
Power Mode
Privacy Mode
RTS Threshold
Short Preamble
Spectrum Management
WEP Option

I've set WEP Option and Privacty Mode to be WEP and the Desired SSID =
my network

The problem is that I have yet to find anyplace on this machine to
actually enter the WEP password. Anyoen have any suggestions?
