OSX and wireless encryption key index
 

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the key index position? I know its possible to change it in windows, but it seems like osx doesn't allow changes and is stuck at position 1.

do you mean the hotspot order for your wifi?

ok now that im on an actual computer i can explain better.

The situation is like this.
My school's wifi is WEP encrypted, anyone who brings a computer to school and uses the wifi will need their "WEP encryption key index" changed to "2". Now, this all works for windows based machines, BUT, for a mac, it doesnt seem like one can change the WEP encryption key index/position, and OSX defaults to position "1". SO without changing the index key position, I do not have access to the internet, I CAN connect to the router, but without changing the key position, I wont be able to acquire a working IP from the router I think.

WEP encryption key index has something to do with the position the password is stored, and without being in the right position, i wont have the right access, thats all I understand.

Have you tried looking under the Assisant me options under the network menu?

Ill check the assist me option more throughly later today, doesn't seem like it can be changed tho from a quick glance yesterday
