title: How to get my wlan adapter up and running
body: <p>I just got ZyXEL NWD2105, a small wlan usb adapter that i found on <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/rt2800usb" rel="nofollow">this list</a> of supported usb adapters.</p>
  
  <p>I've already done </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant, I'm already at the newest version</li>
  <li>sudo apt-get install firmware-ralink </li>
  <li>sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>My config looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet static
          address 192.168.1.10
          netmask 255.255.255.0
          gateway 192.168.1.1
  
  auto wlan0
  iface wlan inet dhcp
          wpa-ssid &lt;my ssid&gt;
          wpa-psk &lt;aes key&gt;
  #        address 192.168.1.11
  #        netmask 255.255.255.0
  #        gateway 192.168.1.1
  </code></pre>
  
  <ul>
  <li>sudo ifup wlan0, IT STATES: Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>So, does anyone know what I'm missing?</p>
