My comments were strictly about wired networking. Wireless support in Knoppix is awful (IMHO). I have several cards that work under other Linux Live CDs but are nit supported under Knoppix. And the one card that I have that did work under 4.02, I can no longer get to work under any 5.x version.

On a side note, I hope you are aware that, while slightly better than nothing, WEP is extremely flawed, and there are now available hacks that will let someone break your WEP system in about a minute! WPA is the system you need for a secure wireless network.
