Description:
  It is possible to configure a network in the first stage installation
  but it is only possible to select DHCP or Static + configure proxy. It
  is impossible to configure a secure wireless connection.

  entering WEP at installation

  Agree absolutely. So annoying to have to move computer to my wired
  router in another room to simply install openSUSE.
   
  #2: Christoph Thiel (cthiel1) (2009-05-26 20:20:57) 
  Isn't this implemented already?
   
+ #3: Lukas Ocilka (locilka) (2009-06-09 10:00:45) (reply to #2)
+ No, it's not. You can't configure wireless connection in first stage
+ (Well, you can by running Linuxrc in expert mode...).
+ Actually, you don't often need it for new installation, but you do for
+ upgrade.
