Dear All,
I dont know if this is a known issue or not, but I have experienced the following funny matter happened on my iPAQ:
If I have specified my AP to use WEP, and then to accept Shared Key based authentication only, I am not able to get my iPAQ authenticate with my AP at all.

It can work with my AP setup to WEP On and then accept open authentication (which means no authentication actually) while if I have forced Shared Key (use WEP key as challenge response) it never authenicate, just like connecting to a 802.11g thing (haha thats what I found in the support knowledge base- keep looking authenticate, join, scan...)

So, iPAQ does not support Shared Key authentication?
