I found that command shortly after sending my e-mail out (as is usually the case :) ). One further question: what is the default power level of the wl card? I've read it is between 5 and 30. I've also read that you can crank the power up to 250 mw (!!) on this thing, though in doing so you can expect to toast the card in a matter of a couple months, even in the collest enviornment.
Now I have to figure out how to run OpenWRT on a WAP54G (also linux based).
