For anybody wanting to know an answer to this: I got a private reply.
The _bottom-line_ was that the right PC card was needed. I got hold
of an IBM High Rate Wireless LAN PC card and am now able to use the
T-20 Laptop on a WEP encrypted network. The linksys card would
probable do encryption with the right drivers (as it works encrypted
with windooze), but unfortunately such drivers are not available.
