Enter SSID of the network you wish to connect to, if known.
Enter Cell Identifier, if known.
Enter Mode.
Enter Channel number.
Enter WEP key if you have one.
Enter additional parameters if necessary.
Penguin>Network/Internet>Network card configuration
You should see two entries, one for the internal lan card, the other for the wireless lan card; wlan0
Click on wlan0
Enter DHCP broadcast IP if needed. If you use static DHCP, leave it blank.
Enter broadcast address. I believe the default should do.
Enter NetMask. I believe the default should do.
Enter the default Gateway.
Enter nameservers.
It will then drop into the wireless setup you did previously. Click through and verify it is all correct.

You should see that the Wireless card is active and you are either hooked up to a network or that networks are in range. You’re IP hookup may be different (DHCP versus static), so play with it a bit.
Start a browser and see if it works.
