Hi No changes if i remove the wep part in interfaces..on the other hand wep isnt starting automatically, i have to do it by hand, if i do iwconfig eth1 essid something there is no error message, it looks as if its is accepting the command. but no essid is set. if i do iwconfig eth1 enc password then i can see that encryption is set and a password ....which is strange ..i mean it takes the enc command but not the essid command...go figure *s*
