You need to use YOUR essid and WEP key. Once you enter the 'iwconfig wlan0 essid xxxxxx', that triggers the association step, and it will never be able to see MY AP from your location. After association, then entering the WEP key will start the authentication. Similarly, I think it will not report back the essid unless that AP has been seen in a scan, but that is hard to test. Please try again using your values. Larry
