Hi Joerg,

Thanks for your help. 

Late last night I got it to work with the following
commands:

iwconfig eth0 key [1] 1234567890ABCDEF1234567890
iwconfig eth0 key [1]
iwconfig eth0 enc on

That last line was not in the documenation page for
iwconfig (as far as I can tell), I gave it a shot
because the man page mentioned 'enc off' at one point
so I guessed that 'enc on' might be valid. I do not
know if the setting the index '[1]' is really needed
for this to work, I will test that later.

All, I have to do now is figure out how to make it
config properly each tome I reboot and I will be all
set.

So for anyone who wants to know this USB device i.e.
SMC2662W V.3 does in fact work with these drivers.

Thanks again.

Richard
