Wouldn't WPA require more info, as there is more than just the WPA1 & WPA2 variable? I haven't looked at the script, but it would seem likely that more than one line would need altered to make the change from WEP to WPA. Also, if you have the broadcast SSID turned off on your router it may take multiple attempts to connect and an automated script may have difficulty with that. I know on my linux laptop on a network that is not broadcasting the SSID, I often have to manually attempt a connection once or twice when the automated script fails.

I'm interested to see whether you get it to work with WPA.
