I don't have any Airport AP's to play with, but I use the Airport card
extensivly. It seems to work with everything.

"Password" is Apple's user-friendly term for the WEP shared key.

If you have turned on WEP in the airport with a password, then beware
that typing that password as a WEP key into other software is likely not
to work. Different vendors use different ways of converting the
"password" to a x-bit WEP key.

Try first with WEP off.

Supposedly, you can upgrade it from a Mac with Apple's airport software.
The old ones only did 48-bit.

In ad-hoc, there is always a link.
