[SATLUG] Continued knoppix problem

[John Champion]

where i stand on this...

well i've tried forcing an ip into iwconfig ath0 and i have tried forcing an
ip via the /etc/network/interfaces and still nothing.

i'm out of ideas...i can work just fine with the WEP turned off but i think
we all know why i don't want to run my home network that way.

i just cannot seem to make ath0/eth0 see the network.

the kwifimanager sees it, the other tools for configuring wifi see it...i
just cannot figure out what's missing.
