SuSe 9.3 WEP key not working


I have installed my D-Link DWL-G122 wireless card and have it up and running.

The problem I have is that the card is running only in open mode. When I tried to set WEP key I am not getting connection.
What do I need to do in order to match WEP key on Linux and on my router?

Thanks a lot.

With help of postings in this forum I have managed to install ndiswrapper and my USB wireless adapter. Thanks again.

OK here is the response to my own problems. Hopefully this will help someone.

I have found a very helpful guide how to install ndiswrapper here: (htp://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Installation#Installation)

In my case the trick was to deinstall previous version of ndiswrapper properly and install newest version of ndiswrapper 1.7. The detailed instruction how to do that is here: (htp://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Install)
