sorry, kinda lost but was wonderin if anyone could help me with my zyxel g-102 wireless cardbus? its installeed picking up the connections and connecting but some setting or something like that is wrong with the media, and it wont get online. have tried everything i can think of. anyone know what im doin wrong?

Not sure I understand the problem.

Is the card associating with the wireless network, but not getting an IP address? Describe your setup a bit, please. I assume the MadWiFi driver is installed. Are you getting an IP via DHCP? What security, if any, are you using? Can you ping a LAN or WAN address? What's the output of iwconfig <your_interface>? Of ifconfig <your_interface>?
