If you run iwlist wlan0 scan, it will probably show that the connection is using WPA 2 encryption. In that case you'll need to install wpa-supplicant and configure the WPA 2 password in order to connect. If you're already connected to the Access Point, you need to run a DHCP client to obtain an IP address and other network details. All of this can be automated in /etc/network/interfaces under Debian so it's a very simple matter of enabling the interface with ifup once you've configured it correctly. Without knowing how yours is configured and wht isn't working, I can't give more detailed advice. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-accessibility-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
