I use WEP 64, the key is you need to type in the passphrase as hex not as a word. (like the previous poster says). I also had to type in my network name I think the first time. (I can't remember anymore). I have absolutely no problem with WEP 64 and the Squeezebox. 100% signal too! --

My radio works with WEP. It took me a little fiddling to get it going because I am quite ignorant about these things. I had my router set to hide the SSID, in addition to WEP and MAC filtering. First I had to read the instructions to realize that I had to translate my WEP password into hex. Once

I think that the bottom line here is that if the device is supposed to support WEP then it needs to. Logitech should be trying to gather data from him in an attempt to get this working. Just because it's an old protocol that is easily hacked doesn't mean that they should only make a 1/2 effort

I run WEP 64 without issue. Your troubles sound vaguely familiar - I remember having trouble on initial startup of the Radio because this radio wasn't behaving the same way as my Squeezebox V3 and my Boom. When you go to mysqueezebox.com and look at your players does it appear as connected? If
