I don't know this for certain, but I would hazard a guess that the reason it works on your linux laptop but not on the Zipit is because of ifconfig itself. The...
The Busybox ifconfig can support the hw option, however the busybox in OpenZipit, & Burn3 does not have it enabled. The wireless driver has never been rebuilt...
