An AP that supports only WEP would set the Privacy bit in its beacon and would not include and WPA/RSN-related Information Elements. WPA-capable access points also set the Privacy bit, but will advertise WPA/RSN IEs. I could be wrong, but an AP can also support both WEP and WPA-PSK simultaneously. I forget what IEs the AP advertises in this situation, but you can't rely on them because a plain WEP client would be ignorant of them anyway. There are other corner cases like Dynamic WEP (eg, WEP + 802.1x authentication instead of a passphrase) which you cannot really detect via the beacons, the user simply has to know that the AP requires Dynamic WEP and configure the client accordingly. > 2) How could I detect that password entered for WPA/WPA2 connection > is > incorrect?

A disassociation event during the 4-way handshake when WPA-PSK (as opposed to 802.1x) is used is most often a wrong PSK. 3) What is Country property needed for?
