Take a look at your WEP key

The Kubuntu setup utility doesn't store this.

You have to use the iwconfig eth0 key [key]

To get the packtes flowing

Subject: [ale] kubuntu wireless

well, my wife started ...using my desktop when I am home( that's what 
happens when you are both out of work..)
so I was trying to use my Kubuntu with wireless. It SEEMED to make a 
connection to my wireless adaptor, using eth1, but route shows 
nothing, no gateway...
do I need to stop eth0 ? I need to get a route to my router, 
192.168.10.1 but it always says unreachable.
help?
I tried using the wifi-helper, and it says it created the connection 
and is using it, but ifconfig shows no IP, and route shows no routes.
