Which version of xPUD are you using.

Have you checked if your wireless card is well recognized ?
Have you tried to connect using command-line ?

I had this problem, and I was able to solve it. The problem is that XPU network manager is not completely autoconfigure, and it seems that could not detect between open and shared mode.

In order to solve the problem, you should:
1. Try to connect using the XPUD GUI, (select your Access Point, and enter you password).
2. GO to xterm and tell the adaptor that you want to connect using a shared key. (at least that was my problem. do=> iwconfig eth1 key restricted
By default, it is set up for "open" instead of "restricted".

3.After a few seconds, XPUD will connect automatically.

Another way you could try is by forcing the whole configuration through iwconfig something like this:

iwconfig wlan0 essid "YourWirelessNetwork" key "s:yourpassphrase" channel 1 ap "00:60:1D:01:23:45"

Try using quotes and no quotes. I think the iwconfig from xpud only allow quots for essid and key.
-keep the "s:" from key
-ap is the mac address of your router. It is not necesary for connection. It tries to force the connection to it.

After this, run
iwconfig wlan0 key restricted

When you run iwconfig alone, you should see all these parameters being set up. You should see connection mode: "restricted". This works if your router is configure for Shared Key mode.
