[Soekris] m0n0wall woes...

Okay, so now that I've finally got my new notebook, I'm trying to get
this networking stuff configured. I have gotten my m0n0wall software
upgraded to version 1.22. LAN is working and DHCP is passing out IP's
to my notebook on the LAN. Got the basic system configured via the
m0n0wall webGUI... However m0n0walls wireless docs seem to be non-existent!
Does anyone have a basic step-by-step network setup how to? Rules that
need to be in place, etc... At this point m0n0wall isn't even
recognizing the wireless interface, LAN isn't talking to WAN (not that
it really needs to), and no reasonable firewall rules are set. Even
with a "pass all" firewall rule, I can't seem to ping the WAN interface
and don't see any blocks in the logs. So, clearly some basic routes
aren't configured... and I'm no networking/firewall genius.
Things to do:
* Get m0n0wall to recognize wireless interface
* Get Wireless interface talking with Wireless WAN interface
* Get Wireless WAN interface talking with Linux Firewall interface
Here's a basic diagram of what I'm trying to accomplish, I've put "X" in
the path of what's not working. Don't know if it matters, but the Home
Firewall is configured for 192.168.10.16/28 subnet on the WAP network.
