[Bug 49392] Re: rt2500 wireless adapter unable to obtain IP address

[Ryan T. Sammartino]

Success.

I was able to obtain an IP address for my wireless card (using stock
rt2500 driver in the latest kernel) by adding

wireless-essid rtswireless
wireless-key <hex key>

to /etc/network/interfaces

All previous attempts were using the ASCII key.

So, the bugs are now:

- Why doesn't ASCII key work?
- Why doesn't network manager manage my wireless interface anymore?
