Question PCI Adapter, D-Link DWL-520E1 /WiFi


I've installed a used PCI Adapter, D-Link DWL-520E1 which I'm trying to connect to a at&t/yahoo 2wire router.

802.11b Wireless, on my 10 year old Presario 5050 Desktop computer.

I get this - Puppy has I.D. the following, network interface on your computterm but still needs to be configured: To test or configure click on this button.

Interface
WlANO

Type
Ethernet

Model

prism2_pci

Bus
pci

Description
X

--------------------------------------------

Desktop Presario OS WIN98, running live/cd Puppy 4.0 I've clicked on ndiswrapper: Select the driver information file (.INF)

Folders
./

../

archive/

bin/

dev/

etc/

initrd/

lib/

mnt/

opt/

proc/

root/

sbin/

sys/

tmp/

usr/

var/

I have the Apapters Cd that came with the D-Link DWL-520E1 (V.E1) PC1. Report on Test of wlan0 - 'Unable to connect to the network'


Configure interface - Auto DHCP
Network Configuration of wlan0 UNSUCCESSFUL!

If a DHCP sever is not availiable, you will have to do everything manually by setting a static IP, both this script will make it easy.

Could you help or explain what I should do next? I 'm a newbie, thanks.
