The wireless lan card in the iConnect is de Ralink RT3090 PCIe half card

This one avalaibe in the kernel sinds 2.6.38+. In Downloads section the driver is already static compiled into the kernel

You'll need some extra firmware to get it working

wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-ralink_0.35_all.deb
dpkg -i firmware-ralink_0.35_all.deb

Now you shoud have an interface wlan0. To add wpa2 security I suggest to add the wpasupplicant package

apt-get install wpasupplicant

Modify your interfaces file (nano /etc/network/interfaces) and add wifi config, for example:

#Wi-fi
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid myssid
wpa-psk mypassword
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-group TKIP
wpa-pairwise TKIP
wpa-proto WPA

Reboot and enjoy your wifi!!
