Hi Vinc,

I managed to find to find settings for WPA PSK TKIP, I put there my ssid 
and password. But still no luck... I am confused about the relationship 
between scanned WiFi network were my network appears and the place where 
I configured the network properties... These settings do not seem 
connected... weird user interface in any case.

A bit yes :-)

Going to sleep...

Thanks,
Abdel.
