RG54GS wep key

Hi all,
I have an rg54gs I want to connect in wds with a dlink dsl g624t; unfortunately the dlink accept just wep key in hex format while the msi in ascii one; I've tried many converters but no one works
someone knows how to solve the problem?
thanks

Hi Bas,
both devices are routers, no matter with zero-config; if I don't use wep key they talk without problems, so the problem is how the dlink router translates the ascii wep key of the msi router and viceversa how the second one translates the hex wep key of the first one
regards

  • How to set up wireless WEP keys in GPO? - possible?

    Summary:
    How to switch users from using Intel ProSet to manage their legacy SSID w/ WEP to using Windows Zero Config w/ both legacy & new SSID's automatically?
    Detail:
    Some of our sites are still using WEP for wireless encryption (believe it or not) over 802.11b AP's.
    We're in process of upgrading encryption from WEP to WPA2 & from 802.11b to 802.11a/g AP's.
    One immediate challenge we have is how to keep both networks in parallel and make this transparent to the end users.
    We can't cut all floors over at once, but need to do one floor at a time because users move from floor to floor.
    We were able to roll out the new network / SSID in Windows Zero Config through GPO, but learned that we can't do the same for the legacy SSID - setting WEP keys isn't an option in GPO, at least according to the server admins.
    Does any of you know how we can do this in an automatic & transparent fashion?
    So far we've been using sneaker net to switch users from Intel to Windows, & configure WEP keys in Windows, which is taking up way too much time.

    If you use a GPO to manage the wireless it will disable the intel proset software. This can have a negative impact, as you may have user that like to use the Proset when not in the office.
    If you are going to use GPOs then the transition should be pretty smooth, just setup the new secure SSID first and then roll out the GPO. There are several M$ patches that you should install as well. Do a search for Microsoft Wireless hotfix and rollup and you will find them.

  • My new smart TV recognizes my network, & asks, "Please enter you WEP keys (10 or 26 hex digits)" but my netwotk uses a password of 6 characters. How can I get my smart TV to connect to my network?

    I have a current iMac with the latest OS update.
    My new smart TV recognizes my network, & asks, “Please enter your WEP keys (10 or 26 hex digits).  My  Airport Express, an early model, only requires a password of less than 10 characters.
    When I open “airport utility,”on my iMac it tells me this version doesn’t support my base station & says go to “Airport Service & Support.”  That’s what got me here.
    My earlier MacBook runs OS 10.6.8. Its version of  Airport Utility works. Its Airport ID has 17 characters, & uses the same password to access the internet, but it also has a “wireless password” of 26 characters, but only shows me the dots. i haven’t the foggiest notion  what the characters are, if I put them in there years ago when i did the original configuration, or if they got there otherwise..
    I’m afraid of changing those settings for fear that I’l mess up the whole thing.
    How can I get my smart TV to connect to my network, ?

  • How do i find WEP key for wrt54g

    Hi, my husband set up our system and i am trying to add a new wireless printer. He is out of the country for business, hence my problem. How do i find what the WEP key/ network key is? Thank you for your help.

    If you have other computer which had connected to this wireless network before, probably you can also use this wireless key finder on that computer to locate the WEP encryption key.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to view my WEP Key ?

    I need to connect to my Airport Extreme Wireless Network from a WIndow XP configured Macbook.
    WIndows requires the Hexadecimal WEP key to connect.
    How do i get this?
    To be sure, i have read many similar questions on this forum and tried :
    - The network preference panel. The "show password" tick option remains grayed out.
    - The Airport utility. The "equivalent network password" on the Base Station meny remains grayed out.
    - The Keychain access utility. I can only find the alphabetic passord, not the hexadecimal WEP key (of course tried to enter the alphabetic one, but did not work, so i assume it is expecting the hexadecimal one....).
    - In one of the posts, the contributor is bemoaning about an upgrade on snow leopard that makes getting to view the WEP key absurdly complicated. He provides a link :
    http://www.adamriggins.com/2009/11/16/how-to-view-saved-wifi-passwords-in-osx-sn ow-leopard/
    ... which unfortunately is not working anymore...
    I do clearly remember easily retrieving the WEP key 2 or 3 years ago, maybe from OS leopard at the time. I don't quite understand why it's been made so difficult now. Was there a security issue ? then is there an Apple note summarizing those facts and recommanding steps for previously set networks ?
    Anyone who can help on this is very welcome.
    Thanks in advance
    YM

    well first of all why are you using wep? don't you realize that all wep networks can be cracked in 15 minutes?
    older versions of windows xp do not know WPA/WPA2 if you are running the latest service pack then it should support WPA or WPA2
    if for the life of you cannot determine the WEP password no matter how hard you try. i found mine by going into keychain and clicked on show password and there was my wifi password
    then you might as well just download the latest version of airport utility, write down all the important settings, and then use the reset button to erase everything and then reconfigure it from scratch. and then you will know your password.
    while you are there, if you can turn on wpa, by all means turn it on

  • Can't set WEP key for broadcom-wl?

    I did a fresh install of Arch this morning at my office. I have an Acer Aspire laptop with a Broadcom wireless card that works with broadcom-wl (I've used the driver for a long time and it works perfectly... with open or WPA networks). The network at my office is WEP. So after installing the drive, adding lib80211 and wl to my MODPROBE (and !b43 !ssb), I reboot and see my wireless as eth0.
    If I try to iwconfig eth0 key XXXX-XXXX-XX or iwconfig eth0 essid WIFINAME key XXXX-XXXX-XX, no matter what combination I try, I get an error saying that it's an invalid argument for SET_ENCODE. I've check the Wiki and man pages for iwconfig, and can't seem to find any solution. Does anyone know why I can't put in a WEP key?
    ((Side note: everytime I've installed Arch, my wifi starts out as eth0 until I get connected and run pacman -Syu. Then I reboot and it shows up as wlan0, and my Atheros ethernet is eth0 or eth1.))

    Thanks for a response. So this is a fresh-from-the-oven install. I usually get my wifi connection set up and then create my user and go about setting everything else up. Meaning I've been trying as root.
    I can see the wireless network with iwlist scan and it shows up as encryption key: on. Also, I tried using each lib80211 mod or some combination thereof in my rc.conf. No dice.
    Lastly, since I didn't include it before, here's the exact error I get when I try to assign a WEP key with iwconfig:
    Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
    SET failed on device eth0; Invalid argument.
    UPDATE: I can set the key using [x] between key and XXXXXXXXXX. However, any combination I'm trying of essid and key/enc isn't showing up in iwconfig. No errors, but my iwconfig information isn't changing. It's progress... I think.
    UPDATE #2: I can iwconfig eth0 essid linksys (the office next to us) and grab that one (I don't know their password ) and it updates iwconfig, but our own network doesn't update iwconfig when I run iwconfig essid. >.<

  • WVC54GCA setup won't take WEP key

    Hi - I'm setting up this Linksys WVC54GCA Wireless-G Monitoring Camera and can't get it to take my WEP settings.The setup screen says, after you select 128 bit WEP, to leave the passphrase field empty and enter the WEP key on the next screen. When you hit enter you get an error saying that the WEP key should be 26 digits and and you cannot continue!
    If I turn WEP off and do it without security it all works fine, so how am I supposed toenter the WEP key? Seem like a bug. Endless loop!
    hanks
    Mike

    Hey just had the same problem as you and found the way around it.  It looks like the Wizard has a bug in it that you have to use the Pass phrase not the pass key. 
    The way around it is to use the web interface, use the IP address that has been assigned to the camera as the web address in your browser, you can see this in the wizard or on your wireless router.
    all the settings to manage the wifi can be found there, you need to use that area to manage everything else for the camera anyway.
    You may need to reset the camera, there is a little button under the camera, use a pen and hold it in for a slow count of 10.

  • No able to connect to router with WEP key

    I want to connect to a router with a 10 digit hex WEP key. Entering this key into Airport, I says that the password is invalid. Using a XP system, I use the same key with a shared autentication option. How can I wireless connect to this router. I know the SSID name. I tried also to start with a $ sign, but no success.

    Put a $ sign in front of the password. So if your password is bnghtybngh type in $bnghtybngh.

  • My mac keeps asking for my WEP key to get on the internet why?

    my mac keeps asking for my WEP key to get on the internet why? And where can i find it

    It's referring to the MAC password that you have setup.
    A software prompts for a password only when there are restrictions set on the user account for unauthorised access to system files and folders.

  • WEP Key decrypt error + Symbol 9060

    I have a WLC 4400 running ver 3.2.150.6. The LAP is a 1242AG-A-K9. I am getting this error message on the wireless controller log when I try and use my Symbol 9060 RF units the message is:
    WEP Key decrypt error. Station MAC Address is 00:a0:f8:ba:b5:36, Base Radio MAC is 00:19:a9:0f:d7:90 and Slot ID is 0.
    My setup is WPA using 802.1x and the units do authenicate but then after a random period the users lose their sessions. Actually doesnt seem to matter whether I am using WPA or WEP, i still drop. I havent had this problem with the fat APs. Any ideas?

    Cisco is saying the WEP error is a known bug and its a fake message, so that is probably not what is causing the drops. When the clients first started dropping I also noticed another error message but it hasnt show back up till today when i put more client guns back in use. the error is:
    WPA MIC Error counter measure activated on Radio with MAC 00:19:a9:0f:bd:80 and Slot ID 0. Station MAC Address is 00:a0:f8:d2:34:98 and WLAN ID is 1.
    Any thoughts?

  • WEP Key decrypt error

    We have WPA2 clients and WLC4402, why is the controller reporting this error message. Does anyone know ? It doesn't seem to effect the connection but I'm just concerning.

    It seesms that this error-essage are dieplayed in different configuration cenarios.
    Does anyone know what exactly the reason is for this error message is.

  • Airport WEP key problem

    Ok, I'm running two Macs and two PC's. The macs are connecting fine to the Airport Express but the PC's are having a tough time.
    My desktop uses a Linksys Wireless Adapter and asks for a 16 character key when Apple Express only asked for 13 characters when I was setting up the WEP key.
    I called Linksys and they insisted the Airport Express had to be changed to a ASCII or something of that nature. Anyone has a clue?

    Any computer that wants to join a WEP-protected AirPort network and doesn't have an AirPort or AirPort Extreme Card in it, whether it's a Mac/PC/Linux box, needs the hexadecimal equivalent of the Apple WEP password.
    To get it:
    - Run AirPort Admin Utility and connect to your base station.
    - Choose Base Station > Equivalent Network Password.
    This will be the WEP key to enter on the PCs.

  • What is a WEP key and where do I find it?

    Any dumbed down help would be greatly appreciated because I'm close to returning the base station time capsule thing. I can connect macs because I know the password, but friends with PCs can't connect, I can't connect a netbook or a blackberry because they all request this wep key. I can't find it and I don't know what it is. Sorry for being stupid, but I'm a loss. Thank you.

    -Connect the ethernet form the windows PC to the Time Capsule.
    -Update the Windows Computer to SP3 and then head to the Microsoft Update Support Site and then search WPA Patch or WPA 2 Patch
    -Download and Install the patch
    -discount the ethernet from the Time Capsule and try to rejoin the wireless network
    -If still having issues then change the Time Capsule security settings
    Or change the security on the Time Capsule From WPA to WEP (Uses WPA By Default)
    Step to do this. On Mac
    -Open finder and head to the Application folder
    -Once in Applications Folder Please find the Utility Folder and open it.
    -Now that we are in the Utility Folder please find a application called *Airport Utility* (Not airport admin utility)
    -Please Open Airport Utility
    -You should now see the time capsule on the left hand side of Airport Utility (AU)
    -In The bottom left hand you will see a button that says *Manual Setup* please click on it.
    -Once done reading the configuration file you should see the *Summary Page*
    -Now there are some tab's please click on the *Wireless Tab*
    -Now you should see lots of info don't worry we only need to change one thing and that the wireless security
    -Right now it should say *WPA / WPA 2 Personal*
    -PLEASE HOLD OPTION and use the MOUSE TO CLICK ON THE DROP DOWN FEILD
    -Now you should see a a few security protocol Please select the *WEP (Transitional Security Network)*
    -Enter a New Password this password may need to be 8 or 13 numbers / letters
    -Now Click UPDATE
    -Now you are using WEP
    -NOTE: You may have to reselect your network using airport

  • What is a WEP key and how do I find mine?

    I'm trying to set up my Wi-Fi connection for my Nintendo DS, and in order to do so, I must enter my WEP key, however, I honestly have no idea what that is, or how to find it. I'm currently using a model wrt54gs v. 4
