Thank you for the efficient response, and very useful it is.
I downloaded the 1.1 pkg. In the process of installing it, Escale
crashed (I was closing a preference setup). Are you interested in the
report?
I got it up again and installed the package. I chose appletalk in the
Dock and chose other computer - and got the errormessage 'Chooser:
There is a problem opening the chooser (-61001).
Hm.
Do I recall some awfull stuff about that or is it just that there is
no connection...?
Anyway, if it is the case that the 1.06 driver will not accept WEP
until registration, then that definitely will explain things. In 1.04
it was stated in the slip, therefore my mistake.
Thanks for your help.
Berthe
