Also cant get ip because of webcode not being set
the initscripts do: # iwconfig eth1 key <wep> is that different from # iwconfig eth1 enc <wep> ??? I do not think so...
dont know as it never shows a wepcode as enterd when i do iwconfig eth1 when i did it though the menu and set it to activate interface on startup
AHH i feel a right idoiot i forgot to put the 0x bit in at the start
