Eric-
I have been using the Belkin F506020 card(802.11b) with both Linksys and D-Link
(802.11b) access points....no problems and I have been using 128 Bit WEP
mac address filtering, etc, successfully.
Hope this helps! I know you are using 54g, and I am not, but my belkin card
has been playing nicely:)
One thing I have been wondering about is that the card almost gets
hot to the touch and is this from using 128 WEP ? It would seem to make
sense if the card's cpu is doing the web and hence working more.
Has anyone seen this with other cards/equipment?

Subject: [BAWUG] [linksys wrt54g] 11b and 54g
'issue'
I have a LinkSys WRT54g (v. 1) with various
LinkSys and Lucent 802.11b
cards working on it just fine. BUT, when I fire
up the PC with the
Belkin "Wireless Desktop Network Card" (F5D7000)
the INTERNET connection
bogs down. It's like the router is choking on the
54g or something weird
like that. When I shut it off, everything goes
back to normal. I have no
problem returning the Belkin card, but I am
wondering if there is a
setting or something I am missing and if I get
another manufacturer's
54g card to replace it I'll end up in the same
boat.
The LinkSys supprt site doesn't even have the
WRT54g in their FAQs or
knowledge-base - which blows.
Anyone heard of this type of thing?
Some parameters you might want to know:
Using WEP 128
Wireless Network Mode is set to "Mixed"
Using Channel 6
All help is appreciated!
Eric
