Actually, it appears that WEP was implemented in 
0.2.0pre8_plus_fixes_51. (http://www.houseofcraig.net/acx100_howto.php)

If there is any way that you can add support for ACX100 cards then I 
would be very grateful.  However, I understand that you can't support 
every chipset on the planet.

Are there any Atheros 802.11g pcmcia cards in particular that work will 
with PXES?  Or is the support for 802.11b?  If I'm going to replace 
cards then I want to make sure I get the right ones!

Thanks very much,
Casey Woods
