I think that was my typo, not yours. In either event the return is:

Yeah, I figured that. I tried out of curiosity.

WPA(ing) not WEP(ing). When I first tried setting up wireless I could
connect with encryption disabled, not enabled. This is no longer true.

One more thing that has changed from my earlier attempts is that before
the connection would authenticate O.K. and hang getting the IP address.
Now hangs trying to authenticate.
