Hi
WEP key has to be matched to the source.
So you are better of checking the WEP in your Wireless Router, or generate a
New one in the Wireless Router (write it down), and copy it to the Wireless
card.

you need to acess first th GUI or the router and for that you need to
contact the tech support for your ISP,after you access the GUI and generate
teh wep key.go to control panel and then netwrok connection and then right
click on wireless network icon select properties click on wireless network
tab put a tick on use windows to configure my wireelss network settings,under
preffered network clieck on add enter the network name or ssid, on network
authentication it should be SHARED mode and on data encryption it should be
WEP enabled, enter the network or the wep key, and then click ok and then ok
again,right click on wireless icon select wview availble network, choose you
network name.press connect

Hi
I do not think that the ISP (Internet Service Provider) support or
otherwise, has any thing to do with setting/finding WEP key on a
Wireless/Access Point.
Wireless security is its own issue even if you do not have an Internet
connection.
