hi,

last time i stuck a pcmcia wifi card in my computer i was able to detect 
the access point but never got an ip address and obviously couldn't get 
on the network.

then craig white and i found out that all we needed to do was add the 
network card (eth0) to the Network Applet in Applications -> System 
Settings.

then it worked.

so i've decided to try getting my on board wifi card working. thanks to 
that ndiswrapper thread. :-)

i have to say it went well. i think it is working.

i can iwlist wlan0 scan

and i get the access point info but can't get on the network.

so i thought why not add this wlan0 to the network applet. but it won't 
accept the wlan0 format. it has to be eth(#).

any suggestions?
