ifconfig for WLAN using WEP

[Tyler Gee]

You will also need to specify the wep key.  A good way of turning on
wep and specifiying the key is:

ifconfig fwe0 nwkey 0x999999999999

Using, of course, your wep key and and the correct iface.  Tamas is
right that it seems weird that you would be using a firewire nic.  It
is possible though, so just make sure you are using the right one.
