	I knew what lo stood for, but not whether it was relevant; the 
rest is news. Thanks!

	Two problems, perhaps related. One: I'm pretty sure WEP was off 
when I did that -- and I'm sure it was late last night; but when I went 
into Setup just now, I had to turn it off again, without having touched 
it in the mean time.

	Two: It said just now that the change had succeeded; I told it 
to continue, and it showed WEP disabled; I did netstar -rn as root, yet 
again -- and, sure enough, I still get all zeroes under Gateway. :-(
