O.K.-

So I have this TX and I already have a wireless routr at home which allows me to connect to the internet using my laptop.

I'm curious........ is there additional equipment / set up that is necessary to connect to the net using my handheld WiFi and my current wireless router set up?

What exactly do I need to do?

Cheers gang!

Turn the TX WiFi on and it will search. Click you network to connect and that's it. Provided you don't have encryption turned on. Otherwise you'll need to enter the key also.

Make life easy, turn off encryption. Goto Advanced setup in your router. Choose MAC FILTER. Choose only allow devices with the MAC addresses listed to connect. Then enter the MAC address of your devices.
 
O.K.

At work, when trying to access the secure network via WiFi, I have been given the WEP Encryption Key (by the administrator) which is 128 bits 26 hex.

I have the key but it is failing to connect.

I noticed that on my TX the only options are:

40 bit hex
40 bit ASCII
40 bit passphrase
104 bit hex
104 bit ASCII
104 bit passphrase

What option do I need to choose when the network at work is: 128 bits 26 hex?

Thanks for any advice. Right now, it won't connect.
