WPA is supported for some wireless chips. The Airport (orinoco, hermes
or whatever it's called) is not among them. You'll have to use WEP.

Put this in your /etc/network/interfaces

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wireless_essid yournetworkname
wireless_key YOURKEY

Or try directly with the program   iwconfig

iwconfig eth1 essid yournetworkname key YOURKEY
