Solved wireless problem by entering hex key in lower case.

I had a hell of a time getting wireless to work when I upgraded from 11.0 to 11.2. I read and excellent articles in the stickies to this section and assured myself that all was well. Out of frustration and smart assedness I changed the upper case letters in my WEP hex key to lower case. All of a sudden it works. Am I crazy? I had to re-enter the code in 11.0 only yesterday so I’m pretty sure upper case worked in 11.0.

On request I’ll post all the command line output, but it doesn’t seem relevant in this situation.

I can no longer test on 11.2, but lower/upper/mixed case works in 11.3.
