Using YaST + NetworkManager it seems NetworkManager detects the adapter as an
ethernet adapter. YaST shows prism2_usb as a wireless interface but under
NetworkManager the wlan0 option shows the ethernet icon and you can only
configure IP, mask and dns, no ssid or key at all. So it doesn't work.
What I don't know is why NetworkManager wrongly detects the wlan0 as ethernet
instead of wireless. This is the NetworkManager log:

But... it works ok when I change to ifup method and use the same script as I
did on previous versions (10.x):
wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_ifstate ifstate=enable
wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_ifstate ifstate=enable
wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_hostwep decrypt=true encrypt=true
wlanctl-ng wlan0 dot11req_mibset mibattribute=dot11PrivacyInvoked=true
wlanctl-ng wlan0 dot11req_mibset mibattribute=dot11WEPDefaultKeyID=0
wlanctl-ng wlan0 dot11req_mibset mibattribute=dot11WEPDefaultKey0="XX:XX:XX..."
wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_autojoin ssid="MySSID" authtype="opensystem"
ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
I've added this lines to boot.local so system starts with the wlan0 up and
connected to the network.

Marco
