[aklug] Re: 802.11g with WPA

I almost had it with the ndiswrapper. I could get the link light to come on at times, but no talky. I also don't remember if I was able to enter a WPA key anywhere - I know that has to happen. I got a bit wrapped around the axle at that point, but will be back infront of it later and post results then. Thanks guys!
