 The last line (//WLAN_IWPRIV[5]//) is the necessary configuration for WPA. The 64-character string '//12345.....901234//' I copied in there should be replaced by your Access Point's 64-character hexadecimal WPA key.
+<note warning>The above notation for the **//WLAN_IWPRIV//** variable has changed starting with Slackware 12.0. The old notation for ''IWPRIV'' in before Slackware 12.0 was like this: \\ ''WLAN_IWPRIV[5]="AuthMode=WPAPSK EncrypType=TKIP WPAPSK=the64characterkey"'' \\ Starting with Slackware 12.0, you should use the new syntax <code>
+WLAN_IWPRIV[5]="set AuthMode=WPAPSK | set EncrypType=TKIP | set WPAPSK=the64characterkey"
+</code></note>
