I thought the same thing and tried that but it didn't end up working. The good news is I got it working by doing this in /etc/conf.d/net: modules="!wpa_supplicant" ssid_wlan0="SSID" key_SSID="s:PASSWORD enc open" I couldn't get wpa_supplicant working either but maybe I didn't take enough time with the config. I guess this was a wicd bug? I love it when working on something all day long actually pays off. - Grant
