Hello,

One thing.... I configure the wireless interface with NO WEP.... and it
works fine with dhcp ...

I tested all possible combination of web keys and did not work. Only works
with NO WEP. I will try with an atheros miniPCI instead of the current one
if this make any change...

Any other suggestion will be very welcome....

Thank you very much for your help.
