I am not sure how to do this. XWLAN actually starts it when a WPA
profile is selected. I presume that the correct parameters are being
passed.

Thanks, I was actually using a very short passkey, 10 characters.
After changing it to 43 characters, I am now reliably connecting to the
gateway. The status icon is always green bars and the info box shows
it connected using WPA2-PSK with the correct LAN & IP address.
However, I still cannot communicate with the network. I can self ping
and get a proper return, but pinging any other box on the net does not
result in returned packets.
