I presume that by 'report reasonable values' that means the AP is 
listed as
associated, and that ifconfig has a reasonable IP address?

I've been trying to update my 1.6 to 2.0, and seem to have clobbered 
X... but that's
a different story. Perhaps today I'll try my atheros based wifi 
interfaces and
see if there are problems. (I have some prism2 based cards but Atheros 
is more
readily available.)
