I managed to get this to work by finding the WEP hex key for the Airport 
under a dusty menu option on OS X and plugging this in to lvnet.

Now I'm trying to stabilize my config -- What's the preferred mechanism to 
get the usbvnetr module to load at startup?  I'm undoubtedly doing 
something wrong, but I currently have to boot, execute "insmod usbvnetr" 
and run lvnet to enter in the WEP key.  I've been told that this can go in 
/etc/network/interfaces, but the changes I made there (adding "wireless_*" 
properties) don't seem to be picked up.  I'm running Debian.

Thanks in advance,
