Hay! Sinaz!
Thanks for your reply.
My PCMCIA card is netgear WG511T
This is the iwconfig command that I execute:
iwconfig ath0 essid "MyWiFi" mode Managed channel 6 key FC65702A5D nick netgear rate 54M
After this command, the KWiFiManage shows the green singal bar.
This is the result of iwconfig:
ath0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"MyWiFi" Nickname:"netgear"

This is my interfaces file:

Eth0 is my another network card, it works fine. I'm using static IP addr, 10.99.13.1 is my router's ip
This is my ifconfig result:

This is my route table:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.99.13.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
10.99.13.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 ath0
default 10.99.13.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ath0
default 10.99.13.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
even after I ifdown the eth0, as :
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.99.13.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 ath0
default 10.99.13.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ath0
I still can't ping the 10.99.13.1 (MY gateway).
another sympton is that every time I execute "route" table, it takes long time to display the result!
Can you find any clues? Thanks
