Check out the wireless.ops file in /etc/pcmcia ah, you need to
uncomment/comment the sections that apply to your env. You should have the
key set in there amoung other things like the zone. I also found "auto" in
the speed part very helpfull when roaming around the building, doing 11mps
will cause drops, allow it to negotiate.

Jon
