Greetings! I have been using Knoppix for a while now. Recently as a challenge, I had my cable de-activated. I got a wireless USB device and wanted to see if I could log on to some signal. I live in a location where there are multiple public and private signals, some are open, such as cafes, motels, etc.

This is for a desktop, not a laptop.

Anyways, I got the device to work. I can control it, scan for and connect to signals. I see lights flashing on the device indicating data flow.

However I can't ping and the web browsers that come with Knoppix that automatically worked with cable do not work with the wireless USB device.

I'll log on with more detailed information tomorrow, but if anyone knows the setting I have wrong please reply! Thanks.
