Chip33az,

So now I am able to configure with iwconfig.   Only my link light is on, act light not  flashing at all ....

I did a network restart but nothing.

Is there a way to list all the wifi in my area?

I sure appreciate your help
Keith

 ran iwconfig - returned "lo    no wireless extentions."
   
 Researching now

 Or you can try apt-cache search linux-restricted.
     
 On my machine, it is linux-restricted-modules-generic, but I'm trying
 out Feisty. YMMV.
