I run linux 9.1, KDE3.3 and kwifimanager 3.3.0 too. I cannot get the wifi card up and ruinnig. Whilst the signa page seems to work fine, the configuration editor does not seem to store the values you enter in the screen. What am I doing wrong? Or is ther e a bug?

Thanks for your help.

What is the output of iwconfig?
What wlan card do you have?
Are you sure you have the right driver installed and working?

Hello. I am running on a DELL Latitude D400. The device is a "INTEL Corp. Pro/wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (Rev 4)-
How do I find out that I have the right driver installed?
Outout IW config:
lo - no wireless extensions
eth0 - no wireless extensions
eth1 - IEEE 802.11b ESSID: "WLAN" Nickname:"linux".
Mode: Managed Frequncy:2.462 GHz Access Point: 00:80:5A:23:03:A4

The problem with the config editor is fixed. Network name is set to "ANY" and Operation mode to "infrastructure", but I cannot surf the net. Wham am I missing

can you ping your access point?

output of ping is (laptop detached from baseunit):
64 bytes from 192.168.2.101: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time= 0.093ms

If your access point IP is 192.168.2.101, then the wireless lan connection is working and it's access point's or router's issue that you can't surf on the net.
Perhaps you didn't configure it well.
