 The following details may help(?):
 
 First, I downloaded the Realtek driver, as suggested, from
 http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?Keyword=rtl8180
 (I did this under winblos, and parked it on my USB drive in "/LinksysWlan";
 downloaded the Windows XP driver (1.75)  arbitrarily)
 
 Then I booted up DSL 0.9.1
 Mount sda1 (my USB drive)
 Bring up the DSLpanel
 [ndiswrapper]
 inf file: /mnt/sda1/LinksysWlan/net8180.inf
 device: wlan0
 ssid: <the ssid of my router>
 wep: <the WEP passcode for my router>
 OK
 [wlanconfig]
 ESSID: <set to same ssid as for ndiswrapper>
 just hit <enter> for the rest of the queries
 [netcardconfig]
 DHCP = yes.
 comes back with "OK"
 
 Now I can bring up browser, etc.
 Only thing I haven't gotten running that I've tried so far
 is wavemon (which complains "fatal error: could not get
 range information" ) - linksys/driver hole?
 
 cheers.
