Invalid WEP key length?

[rjcoupe]

The WEP key length returned by cracking attempts against (and also found in the config file for) wifi-old is - as far as I'm aware - a nonstandard length, resulting in wpa_supplicant rejecting/ignoring config blocks containing it.

Recreating the config file as per the walkthrough and running the same wpa_supplicant call results in an error.

$ sudo wpa_supplicant -i wlan2 -c wifi-old.conf
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
Line 4: Invalid WEP key length <redacted> - this network block will be ignored
Line 4: Invalid WEP key length <redacted> - this network block will be ignored

This may not be an issue with the AP, per se, but it seems the docs may - at least - be missing something.
