Hi,

I installed DSL to my usb flash drive about a month ago and had my D-Link DWL-650+ working successfully using the ndiswrapper gui and a string 64 bit wep key (prefixed with s:).

I've just installed to my HD (and added it to grub) and now I can't get the wireless network up when booted from the CD, HD or USB so I must be doing something wrong. I've been trying for almost 3 hours now :-(
Can anyone give me step by step instrutions for setting up wireless with the gui tools. In the forums I've seen /home/dsl/ndiswrapper.readme mentioned but it doesnt seem to exist.

Thanks

Allan
