    knewtworkmanager and static ip's

    Hey guys,
    I'm using static IP's and wpa in my WLAN and that seams to be a real big problem, since knetworkmanager doesn't really work with that...
    I think wpa wouldn't be the problem, when I set dhcp I can see my WLAN and type in the wpa passphrase, but it can't connect to it, because dhcp isn't enabled in the network. But if I use my static IP adress I can't even see my network anymore...
    I've googled for hours and am really frustrated...
    It seems to be a usual problem, with knetworkmanager an static ip's, but how can I solve it?
    thx,
    unique

    /etc/network/intefaces:

    auto wlan0
    iface wlan0 inet static
    address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
    netmask 255.255.252.0
    gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
    pre-up iwconfig wlan0 mode managed
    pre-up ifconfig wlan0 up
    pre-up iwconfig wlan0 essid "xxxxxxxxxxxx"
    pre-up iwpriv wlan0 set AuthMode=WPAPSK
    pre-up iwpriv wlan0 set WPAPSK=password
    pre-up iwpriv wlan0 set EncrypType=TKIP

    good luck
