    OK i have a Notebook with a intel 2200b/g wireless and a good old
    regular cat5 port
     if I use either one of them, I lose the ability to browse to other
    pages than the Current one that is displayed. Not sure if it is named
    that is causing all the problems or if it is cache-nameserver. As I
    type this message, i can ping any IP address out there but if I try
    to ping by name e.g www.google.com, i get a unknown host response.

    [root@JimsNotebook ~]# ping -c4 www.google.com
    ping: unknown host www.google.com

    [root@JimsNotebook ~]# ping -c4 24.93.1.118 <-- A DNS server from my ISP
