It's an open key, but the network is WEP protected.
The problem doesn't seem to be my interfaces file though, for some
reason eth2 isn't being noticed at boot. I do notice though, that I get
a line like this somewhere along the war:
Loading Apache2 web server...Using 127.0.0.1 as IP...done.ipw3945
802.11ABG detected
This is all in one line (Although I'm guessing it's from a prolonged
ipw3945 daemon)
This is of course, after networking fails.
