Laptops :: Wireless internet with a built in wireless card.



I have an Acer Aspire 3680 Notebook pc. I downloaded, burned,  and booted up DSL with success. The only problem I'm facing is connecting to the internet. I can connect if I plug in an ethernet cable to my laptop. But it won't let me connect to the internet through my built in wireless 802.11b/g wireless LAN card. How can I get this to work?
Buy a card that has been found to work with DSL.
You may try NDISwrapper and Window$ driver.  I'm not sure what its chip is.  If it is Atheros based, you may try madwifi.  Good luck  :D
I'm also using an ACER 3680 laptop.  The chip is an Atheros AR5006EF.  Ndiswrapper is working fine with DLS and PClinuxOS 2007.  Use the Windows XP driver and you should be up and running.
Why ndiswrapper? Atheros chips have native drivers..
