Feb 03 13:22:41 <bluetape>	you should use your distro's config tools to try to config the interface now
Feb 03 13:22:52 <bluetape>	that won't work because you need to associate to an AP first
Feb 03 13:23:03 <hammer2>	ok how do i get there
Feb 03 13:23:06 <bluetape>	though dhclient might be able to take it up properly
Feb 03 13:23:07 <hammer2>	the tool things
Feb 03 13:23:11 <bluetape>	so maybe you should try that
Feb 03 13:23:16 <hammer2>	ok ill try
