yes, trying to establish a WLAN connection won't work using any of
FC5's included graphical tools, as far as I my experiences went.
Especially, NetworkManager won't succeed in connecting to any wireless
AP.

Finally, I was able to establish a WLAN connection, with the help of
iwlist's "scan" option. Mode-802.11g-only, WPA and WPA2 connections
did not work, however.
