Subject: [gentoo-user] Why iwconfig wlan0 enc can't work?

The essid of my dormitory wireless netword is "Rebellion"
 and its password is "I'll leave it up to you"(It's OK to tell
 you this private information :-) ) .
 I typed command below
 #iwconfig wlan0 up
 #iwconfig wlan0 essid "Rebellion"
 Commands above worked normally, then
  
 #iwconfig wlan0 mode master
  
 Our AP mode which iwlist shows is master,
 but the command above failed. Error message was
 "Invalid argument".
 Then I typed
 #iwconfig wlan0 mode managed 
 This worked , then
 #iwconfig wlan0 enc "I'll leave it up to you"
 This failed with error message "Invalid argument"
  
 I have searched the internet , but I didn't find 
 useful information .  The password is right , it 
 can work on windows system .So what's wrong
 with it?
