Wpa connection problem

[Andy Boersma]

Hi Mack,

Its easier using the tools rather then manual config.
Please ensure that you have the Network-Manager and 
Network-Manager-Gnome Applets are installed

This will give you an Icon in the top right corner, click on it and you 
get the option to connect to network or hidden network.
