    I know this one, as I read about it recently when a friend was having difficulty using WEP.

    The answer is C

    Time's up. You are all right. C is the correct answer. The 40 bit WEP key combines with with the 24 bit IV to form 64 bit WEP encryption. Not really hard to crack but better than nothing. I'm going to have to take this up a notch. You all know far too much for these beginner's level quesitons.

    Final Wireless QOTD for the week tomorrow. Be there!
