After downloading install using:
root@copper:/tmp # tar xvfz hostap-driver-0.4.9-ipcop-<version>.tar.gz -C /
root@copper:/tmp # depmod -a
If you have a PCI card use:root@copper:/tmp # modprobe hostap_pci
or if you own a PCMCIA / Cardbus card:root@copper:/tmp # modprobe hostap_cs
ifconfig -a and iwconfig should show wifi0 and wlan0 interfaces.
I found that I needed to flash a newer firmware to be able to use WPA. No problem after I found Jun Sun's excellent site 
Before:
