Dear all,

Just got a DG834G v3 router and i am unable to connect to it with the WEP key. I have 2 other PC's running XP and they connect fine, but when i key in the WEp key within OSX it says "there was an error joining the Airport network (network name)".

Can anyone help?

I had the same issue once.

go to the wireless network icon in the top bar

Go to Other

Type in your netowrk name

Choose WEP 40/128-bit hex


I'll bet it works!!!

Tell me if it does or doesn't
