When I bring up the interface (ifup wlan0)

[12246.900516] b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 478.104 (2008-07-01

..and I can't connect to my access point..
My /etc/network/interfaces:

....

# wireless
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
        #wireless-mode managed
        wpa-driver wext
        wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
        # static ip settings
        address 192.168.0.100
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        #network 192.168.0.0
        #broadcast 192.168.0.255
        gateway 192.168.0.1

Could someone plese give me a suggest ?

Thanks a lot.
Fabrizio
