Hej Dennis, thanks again! The strangest thing about that is that exactly _that_ configuration worked just fine on a same hardware - same AlixBoard and same WIFI dapter. So I took the boot device (CF card) and put it back into the box I know it would work - and it works! So it could be a basic examination to find the differences of both WIFI adapters, but now that I have a working one, I am glad and don't think I want to spend more time with the not-working one.
