It will work, but the firmware in the base only supports 40bit (64bit)
WEP... So there isn't much point to that.

Do you have your Newt working with this base with the WEP turned off?
I have seen some issues with this base and both the Silver and Gold
wavelan card, in a newt I know to work AOK...

Anybody on list using the Airport Graphite base station?
