	That's exactly what it should look like. So, the problem is
elsewhere...
	o make sure "Current Transmit Key" is the same as the AP
	o make sure the AP don't have any ACL/MAC filtering
	o make sure the AP don't use 802.1x
	o make sure the AP don't use short header
	o bug in the driver

	I hope that in reality the AP address is different from
00:00. If not, you have an ESSID problem.
