AirPort Extreme access

[Randman]

I have an AirPort Extreme station I just got for my new G4. I decided to open up my old clamshell Graphite and update software and shake the cobwebs loose.
I have an original AirPort card on it rather than Extreme but it still read the AirPort network I created. However, when I try to login, I keep getting messages that the password is incorrect.
I even went to Keychain on my G4 and verified it. The caps lock isn't on and it's purely numerical.
Any ideas?

Are you talking about a WEP password on the AE base? If so, have you verified that changing that password on the base and the laptop (and, of course, your working system) allows the laptop to access the network?

Yes, it was WEP and I had verified it. I never could get it working. Finally, I just took the password off and it connected right up. There's no other networks on in my condo complex so I don't think I have to worry about anyone hijacking my signal. And it was just while I updated software on the clamshell. After I updated everything and charged it up and packed it away, I turned the encryption back on for the Extreme-carded IceBook.
Still, I never could find a reason why the clamshell refused to accept it other than it was not an Extreme card.
