Thanks you, I think we're not so much, but, it was a pleasure to begin 
to help the debian community like this :) .
I'm now beginning to see the other pages of the wiki to translate them 
as well... I hope it will be useful to someone ! :p

I've written exactly what you said, except for the psk password, but My 
Debian can't see any wireless network with the applet 
"nm-applet(?)"(near the clock)

On the other side, I can see some thing very strange for me : The 
connexion is actually done with a WEP connexion I have here... but not 
with the WPA one.
The wep one is FON_AP and the WPA one is Myplace. (with the fonera, for 
those who know it)
Nevertheless, the FON_AP is not shown in the nm-applet.
Something about it ?
