NetworkStatus now joins a network when you select one. If you need a password,

you need to have it configured in your "interfaces" settings file. This could
look like this:
	network my-ssid-name {
		authentication wep
		password gurkensalat
	}

Of course, the cleartext password will go away in the future.
