I can get it to work when WEP is turned off, just not turned on.  I've got a dlink AP and some people have responded that it doesn't work well w/ Dlink APs.

Rich:

As nearly as I can tell (can't get anyone to say it in these words),
wireless is simply not supported on the iBook (mine's a 12"). WEP or
otherwise. I've been waiting for a couple weeks now on some promised news
about a fix from YDL. Nothing yet. Meanwhile, I bought a used Thinkpad
600x, put RH9 on it and am now starting to get things going. The
beautiful little iBook will sit on the shelf until YDL gets this fixed.
