Access Control Not Working with WEP Encryption

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which device (manufacturer, type)?
Motorola Droid

Which firmware is installed?
Froyo FRF57

What version of wireless tether are you using?
2.02

What steps will reproduce the problem?

The access control and/or WIFI encryption work just fine when used separately. 
However, if I enable both, internet traffic is stopped. If I enable one or the 
other, traffic is restored.

When both are enabled, I press the screen to start the tethering. When it 
starts, a message is displayed saying "tethering started with some errors, 
please check show log.

I ran wifi tether through the ADB Shell and here is the debug report:

I have experienced trouble getting access control to work on its own with 2.2 
(Froyo).  If I enable access control, it stops internet access for the iPhone 
that I had connected.

Also having this issue, it would be nice to be able to control access via 
access-control but I could see it as being considered redundant and unnecessary 
with WEP enabled.

I'm also having this problem.

Droid X 2.2 running 2.0.5-pre14 works flawlessly with WEP encryption enabled 
and ACL disabled. With both WEP encryption and ACL enabled gives "tethering 
started with some errors, please check show log" as described by samishamieh1.

If access control is MAC filtering why bother? MAC spoofing is orders of 
magnitude simpler than PSK cracking.
