OK, I know I've bugging the crap out of everyone about WEP so I'll do it
again. :P

Anyway, I have an old Fedora Core laptop that I've installed Debian
Testing, cause I want to learn "the other side". Here's what I did on my
FC laptop (I have more than one) and it got the wireless working:

iwconfig eth1 essid mynetwork key 12345abcde678fgh
ifconfig eth1 up
dhclient eth1

 I STILL haven't been able to get the Debian box to connect. I get
access point address 44:44:44:44:44:44, which according to the howto's
I've seen this means it can't see my access point. I'm litterally
sitting next to it to make that not a problem.

I know this laptop with this NIC connects to this access point under
Windows and FC1.

Thanks for the help guys and gals.
Roy
