    Also, given the bit rate, I'd say you're using 11b. Have you set your
    router to 11g/turbo? Try using 11b/11g "mixed" mode instead.

    If the OP can't connect to the AP then I'd suggest that there's not
    really a lot of point in this - yet.

    Taumo, how are you configuring eth1 (from the network perspective, not
    the wireless one)? Do you have a network configuration file, and if so
    what is its contents?

    Which distribution and version of GNU/Linux you're running?

    For example, if it's debian I can give you a canned example that should
    "just work". If it's one of the other distros then someone else may well
    be able to do the same.
