I am having problems setting up wireless connections to my home network that has WPA2 security-PSK, MAC Address filtering and the SSID is not broadcasted.

I've entered in the necessary data under Wireless Connections: SSID, security set to WPA/WPA2, entered PSK (difficult as it's 20 chars long and I'm not able to confirm I've entered it correctly-only *'s) added the ereader's WiFi MAC address to my modem "allow list", and set Network Settings: IP address configuration is: DHCP. Proxy configuration: Use proxy is: off.

When I test the connection, I get a "Network Error"; details include the 2 lines repeated 6 times:
/sbin/ipconfig eth0 up
ipconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device

I don't know what this means.

Firmware is 2.0.5 20110314_113218

Any Ideas?
