i have a peculiar problem. my wireless card is detected by the 3.7 live cd and i can use the web on live cd, but when i installed it to hd, it seems to not work, although it is detcted at boot. i tried using the netcardconfig gui and also ifconfig ifup and /etc/init.d/networking restart but the card is simply not detected. the modules are loaded and also, the card is detected on boot so i don't know what is wrong..

thnks,

bring up the interface with (as root and assuming dhcp)

ifconfig eth1 up

it may be eth0
then get a dhcp address with

pump -i eth1

again it may be eth0

When you find out which one it is edit /etc/networking/interfaces like:
auto lo eth1
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth1 inet dhcp

Hope this helps...
