Hi,

I am using a Slax liveCD (latest download as of 10-23-05). The IBM laptop is
equipped with a DWL-G650 PCMCIA card.

The KWiFiManager runs fine. It detected my network and, after configuring
the WEP, it shows an "Excellent" connection. However, there seems to be no
connectivity - my ping returns a "network is unreachabale" for anything I
type (including a ping of my router!).

I entered the following entries in my /etc/resolv.conf, but it did not help:

domain cfl.rr.com
nameserver 192.168.0.1

Any help or suggestions?

Thanks!
SB
