Re: [debian-knoppix] DWL-650 wireless support ?



My Linksys WPC11 version 3 is reckonized automatically by Knoppix.  When I go to Schlotzskys I just put the card in, and it works.  When I go to a friends house, I have to do iwconfig key=thepassword and then have to run dhclient

because my friend is running WEP.
