[Tim]

Where in XP Home addition do you set the wireless WEP keys(s)...I have
searched the help and various folders but can not find anywhere to input the
key ?

Thanks, Tim

2 places to set your WEP key........neither a part of XP........
1. Using the utility that came with your wireless router, there should be a
"security" menu that allows the WEP to be set for the signal broadcast by
your router.
2. Using the wireless adapter on the PC/notebook for which you would like to
receive the wireless signal broadcast by the router. The adapter should have
a similar "security" menu that allows you to set the WEP key needed to
receive the router signal.

WEP key MUST be the same on both ends--(sender and receiver).
The Network ID name MUST be the same on both as well.

Hope this helps.

You should also check in your Control Panel and there could be a wireless set
up wizard that can walk you through the process.
