How do you set in Linux 128bit?   I thought if you set it to 13 digits then
its 128bit?  no?

I think i have the same channel in the config file.

I know I had to manually edit the config file for eth1 (my wireless
card), and change the channel to 6 (it was 1 by default).

You might also verify whether you are set to use 64 bit WEP or 128 bit
WEP. They do not use compatible keys, even if you (try to) enter the
same key for both.
