[ts-7000] TS-7400 newbie questions

["rbarris" <>]

(re-posting via the web form, direct mail to the list address didn't work?)

1. The "linuxarm-guide-rev2.0.pdf" states on page 28:

===========
The TS-Kernel supports USB WiFi 802.11g devices based on the zd1211 chipset. The
module binary is available at:
? ftp://oz.embeddedarm.com/wireless/zd1211/module/zd.o
In order to bring up a wireless network, one needs to load the required 
modules, use
ifconfig to brings wlan0 up and then use iwconfig to associate the interface to 
a WAP.
===========

        Do the same directions apply for WLAN operation under Debian?

        All I've done to my 7400 so far is change the /linuxrc symlink to point 
to /linuxrc-
sdboot and rebooted under Debian, ethernet and serial are working great and now 
I want 
to bring up the WLAN.


2. is there any way to get WEP or WPA encryption using the WLAN support in 
Debian ?  
(Ideally WPA if for no other reason than I only have one base station in the 
house and it's 
in WPA mode)

3. The kit I got came with the SD card pre-installed in the 7400 with the 
Debian 
environment on it.  If I mess that up in some way, what are the steps to 
restore that flash 
card to its factory state ?  Or, what would be the best way to back it up?

thanks in advance for any help on these.
