Any reason you didn't install opensuse 10.2 on it? Wireless on network manager is a lot simpler on 10.2... Just a stab in the dark, try putting your actual passphrase for 'psk', instead of the hex encoded version. Just for kicks... (noticed something like this a while back when I was running openwrt on my wrt54g v3). Anyway, you shouldn't have to worry about this stuff on 10.2, as it's pretty seamless.

Hello all, I recently acquired a inspiron 8600 laptop that I fixed up. I installed openSuSE 10.0 on it and went to setup the wireless card. I am not a newbie to linux or suse, but I am to wireless on linux... So over the past three days I have been searching the web and I think that I am very close here... but something is still missing.
If anyone can shed some light onto this issue it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!! -Cheers, Peter.
BTW... I can associate with, ping, etc. with an unencrypted open basestation... but not with my Linksys WRT54G v6
