It works just fine for me!=20

Haven't tried that yet.=20

I would search <http://freshmeat.net>; but actually, you don't need
it. Install the hostap and the wireless-tools package (I compiled it
from unstable), and add to your /etc/network/interfaces something
like

# wireless DHCP=20
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless_power period 2
wireless_mode managed
wireless_essid MyNetwork
wireless_nick andre
wireless_key xxxxxxxx restricted

where xxxxxxxx would be in hex, and match your access point's key.=20
