Subject: How to use software encryption with WEP and mac80211

What do I need to do to get mac80211 to do software encryption for WEP? My port of the PHY code from 
bcm43xx and the mac80211 front end works with WPA encryption. With WEP, it authenticates and 
associates, but never gets an IP number from DHCP. That indicates to me that the encryption is not 
set up correctly. I looked through the various definitions in include/net/mac80211.h, but nothing 
seems to apply.

Thanks,

Larry
