OK, that's WEP64 in Hex and should work. So much for that theory and
back to square one.

Could I trouble you to disclose the maker and model of the access
point or wireless router to which you're trying to connect?

Since the unspecified model wireless router works with other wireless
clients, I can presume that it's not defective. Are you *SURE* that
you've disabled MAC filtering and IP filtering? The fact that the
Netgear card and whatever is in the Dell D620 both do not work seems
to point to a functioning MAC or IP filter. Try temporarily turning
OFF encryption in the unspecified model wireless router and see if it
works. If it does NOT work, then you probably have a MAC or IP filter
enabled somewhere.

If you don't have a huge number of configuration tweaks and forwarded
IP ports, you might wanna just punch the reset button and start over.
