There is a known issue where rt2860 does not support both WEP and WPA in a single compiled module. (There is a config option to enable one or the other, but not both, for some dumb reason.)

Asus has released a patch to one blogger who complained about this, but AFAIK it's not on any Xandros repositories yet. See: http://www.itwriting.com/blog/778-fixing-wi-fi-on-asus-eee-pc-901-with-linux.html

I had a look at Eric's repository that you just posted, Giovanni. This WEP/WPA patch is not yet included.
I can post a comment to let him know about it.

(The Asus patch provides the config option EEEPC_SPECIAL_SETTING. Not a very intuitive name :)
