  Okay. As an aside, how does one switch the Lucent card to
(standardized) 40-bit WEP? There is no switch for it in wiconfig,
so does it trigger on the length of the key?

  Right, that's the point to just have the neighbor not using your
bandwidth, not because it has to be ultra-secure. I just bought the
gold card "in case" I have to use it somewhere that actually uses
104-bit WEP.
