Thanks for the reply but I believe 900HA and 900A have different hardware. I just tried Squeze again and still no wpa connectivity and no ethernet support at all. I haven't tried loading firmware, is that my next step? I had Ubuntu 10.04b running perfectly on this system, so I know the drivers are out there. I'm brand new at Linux, but I like getting my hands dirty so I'm up for anything. Nicholas Chase
