 Thank You .... i must say : This support is really fast!! :)
 
 problem with firmware is solved ... it was caused by my chaotic update
 from 3.1 release.
 
 But.... i have another one ... status : no network
 
 i am using SHARED key WEP-128 bit ...
 
 i set ssid and nwkey, but i don't know, how to set
 AUTHMODE to SHARED .... is there any manpage available for this driver?
 
 
 Jaromir.
