A working WPA with IBM R50p 1832 and Dapper?

[Christian Brodbeck]

Thanks for your answer.

The Problem is, that the network I'm in, is the network of my father's 
medical office, which means that I need WPA, because of the patient 
files on his PC.

I get to the Inet via the adslmodem/router of my father (Zyxel 652R) the 
there is a switch to my wifi router. I disabled it's  DHCP to be able to 
print on his printers.

How can I access his Printer if it's in an other network if I'd have 
192.168.0.x and he 192.168.1.x as IP?
Do you think if I enable the DHCP in my router it could work?

Regards, Christian
