Hi,

You should be able to set it in the file /etc/network/interfaces as the following line :
wireless-key <your_key>

Sorry I can't tell you about a GUI as I'm addicted to CLI.

Hope it helps.

Re: wirelless network not working

I see alot of help refering to CLI but I am not realy sure even howt to get to it is the "Konsole" the right CLI area? This is some of my frustration since people just assume that others know how to do this stuff. ANY HELP?

Sorry, for this you should go in k menu, run command, type konsole and press enter. You will be then in a command line interface.

Hope it helps
