I've been running it without WEP to begin with - have to register the
software first before I can use it anyway... no go.

I just got the card this afternoon and printed all the relevant info
from the Newton WaveLAN and NewtEnlightenment websites. I've got it set
up pretty much the way it seems you're supposed to; and I do get a
flashing light/lights when it initially attempts to connect. So I'm
doing something right.

Ditto, but right now I'd just be happy with a positive result, like a
connection, being able to sync w/ iCal and so forth...
