Hey,
The iwlist wlan0 scan returns -

The iwconfig return is -
iwconfig essid<"DI-624_WIRELESS"> ap<00:13:46:AA:76:74>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
I'm not sure what that means.
Then an iwconfig wlan0 returns
wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:""

On a side note, using the Gnome menu shows the following -
system ; preferences ; startup applications ; network manager
command 'nm-applet --sm-disable
My mistake reporting the ethernet connection not working - it does work. It's firefox that shuts down if I try to open more than one tab. Opera seems to work OK.
