I guess, it will also lock up under other circumstances, when you have multiple network connections open that generate traffic. >Also, just noticed that the above contained: >ssid Phoenix nwkey 65536:"",0x299ab4bb1d4a60ce4a701469277efb16,"","" >wtf? is that really a usable key to access the network or is it some >kinda hash?

It's usually hashed from a passphrase. You cannot reverse it back to the passphrase, but that's not required. The ifconfig command will only present it to the root user.
