wireless not working on iBook

[Gavin Hemphill]

The Linksys documentation says that their implementation of 128 bit keys 
is unique to them.  I have been successful however with an airport card 
in an original TI PB by simply putting in the hex key with both the 64 
and 128 bit keys - Note you must reset the linksys if you originaly 
enter a 64 (40) bit key before the 128 bit keys will work (at least it 
appears that way to me).
