I'm running Core 2, and from a laptop using a wireless (802.11-B) card
to reach a WAP.  I have absolutely no problems in using a wireless
configuration  *provided* I broadcast my SSID.  But, as soon as I no
longer broadcast my SSID my wireless card cannot "find" the WAP.

Two questions:  

1) How can I configure my system to access my WAP by it's assigned ID.

2) On a related security issue, how can I make use of WEP encryption.

Thanks...Terry
