Post subject:  R5B7 W/ D-Link GWL-510 Wireless Card with WEP

5B7 supports the GWL-510 (and other wireless cards using the Atheros chipset, http://madwifi.sourceforge.net), but I had to do some extra config to get it working after the setup script took the options.

1. Cntrl-Alt-F1 and log in as root
2. cd to /etc/network
3. nano (or vi) interfaces
4. Add the following under iface ath0 inet dhcp:
Code:
wireless-mode managed
wireless-essid <your essid/network name, "Linksys" if you are a sheep>
wireless-key <your wep key>


Instructions for configuring with WPA are at the madwifi driver site. Click on docs, then scroll down for the Debian docs.[/code]
