Hey all, I'm sorta new to DSL. I have tried it out and it's pretty good (slight sound problem tho.) I managed to get a wireless connection, but only with the ndiswrapper gui. I haven't found a combination of terminal commands that'll get it working. I want to be able to get wireless working right away when I boot it up. Could you help me? I'm using DSL 3.1 and a D-Link DWL-G520 Wireless NIC.

If you used the ndiswrapper GUI then you should have the commands ready for you to use. Look in /opt for a file called myndis.sh

There you will find the command used to make the connection.
You can add this script to /opt/bootlocal.sh or add the commands to /opt/bootlocal.sh

Well, it did work to a point. I could see that my card was blinking, but I still had to start up dhcp manually through netcard config. I think I'll try to just put the link to myndis.sh in bootlocal and see if that works.

EDIT: I tried it and it worked. Thanks for the help!
