WEP offers almost no protection, you should use at least WPA.

What the key box is, is a list of allowed keys to access a network. If you only have one simply use Key 1 and input your key and it sohuld work. I say should as wireless either will or will not work. Post back with results.

If this equals that, then why does that equal this?
