I don't have any trouble connecting to the open AP at my school, but here at home I use WPA-PSK because it is more secure than WEP. Does wlcardconfig support WPA-PSK passwords? From the look of it, it doesn't. If not, is there any way to get it to connect to my WPA-PSK using AP without downgrading it's security to WEP?

Im assuming here that you are using ndiswrapper for loading your wireless drivers.If that is the case then here are the instructions to get the WPA-PSK work .
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/WPA

I tried the instruction and for some reason it did not work and I didnt spend much time on it.
