I'm no expert, so experts may correct me !

Card flashing is a good sign. What version of DSL ?

Firstly, in your wireless access point, open your network and remove security, and note what channel it is on.

Then go into control panel - System stats
and look in net and pci where you might find some info.

In a shell type
ifconfig -a

to see what is happening with your network adapters.

Then in control panel - iwconfig
device = one of what you found above (eth0 , ath0 etc)
channel = wireless channel you are using
sid = network ssid
wep = leave blank

If it works then try wep in the access point and add your wep code above.

I thought it might be a good sign and I will give those things a try the version is the new one I think 4.0 something LOL sorry !!! Thanks
