As Siduhe has pointed out, there are several on-line tools that can 
convert from ascii to hex and vice versa.

What you need to do is:

1. Take your hex key, e.g. '61626364' and convert it to ascii. This will 
result in something like 'abcd'
2. Use the resulting ascii string to set the WEP key

You will run into problems if you have used hex results in non-printable 
ascii characters. You could get round that by choosing a nice ascii 
password, converting to hex, storing the WEP key in your WAP, then using 
the original ascii to set the WEP key on your SBR.

Of course, the best way to fix this would be to upgrade to the latest 
version of Net-UDAP which accepts WEP key entry in hex.
