Hi,

I have a Tecra 8000 laptop (133 MHz, 64 RAM, 1Gig)

I am trying to use a DLink DWL-G122 wireless adapter to connect to a Lynksys wireless b router.

I believe I have installed the drivers installed properly, as when I type
iwconfig wlan0

it says:

IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any
Mode: Managed Frequency: 2.437GHz Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00
Bit Rate: 2Mb/s Tx-Power: 32 dBm
RTS thr:2432 B Fragment thr: 2432 B
Encryption key: off
Power Managemnet: off
Link Qality: 0 Signal leve: 0 Noise level: 0
Rx invalie nwid: 0 Rx invalid crypt: 0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries: 0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon: 0

when i type ndiswrapper -v in the terminal, it says there is a device called wlan0, with the drivers installed, and the hardware is present.

Does anyone know how I can configure the wireless nic to browse the internet?

thanks in advance

scott
