When I do that, it doesn't connect to the network. I've been reading and
it seems that the firmware may be an issue:
http://linux.junsun.net/intersil-prism/
That was it!!! I ran the command 'prism2_srec -v -f eth1 pk010101.hex
SF010802.HEX', rebooted and it immidiatly ask me to connect to my network
via WPA Personal.
