again, the green light on the card is lit, but still no internet
connection. Also, while I am still a newbie, I wonder if the setting as ethernet type (on
the main network config screen) is correct. Should it say wireless? Since the way it is
now, I cannot get any screen to enter a SSID, key etc (though I turned off security on my
router/gateway as you asked).
Any help anyone could add would be greatly appreciated. I truly dislike M$ and this is
the last step for me to get a clean getaway from Gates and company.
Start "System Settings -> Network", choose "eth1", press the
"Edit"-Button in the toolbar.
The third tab should be called something like "Wireless Settings" where
you can change your SSID.
Did you configure a route for your wireless card?
What does "route" (as root) say?
Kind Regards,
