To connect to your WiFi network, do you use a WEP passphrase, or hex key? While I think most non-Apple WiFi routers just use the hex key (which is exactly what you need, put a 0x (for example, if your hex key is 0A1B2C3D4E5F6G, you'll need to enter the hex key into the control panel as 0x0A1B2C3D4E5F6G) in front of it when entering it into the ORiNOCO control panel and you should be good to go), Apple AirPort base stations typically use a WEP passphrase by default, though you can get the hex key from the AirPort Utility. Via use of the hex key, I use 128 bit encryption on my WiFi network, and my PB1400 is able to connect and use the network with no trouble at all.
