Using a Linksys E2000 router with DD-WRT, 128 bit WEP works with Kobo devices. But who in their right mind would use WEP these days? Takes just a couple of minutes to crack WEP. WPA is not all that secure these days so WPA2 would be a much better option.
If your administrator is actually depending on WEP to secure a wireless network, tell him to move into the 21st century and look at WPA2. Much like rainbow tables made LM password hashes trivial to crack, there are several tools that make cracking a WEP password trivial. Check into using a BackTrack 5 Live DVD with a compatible wireless NIC to collect the data for aircrack-ng as an example
