Openindiana wifi

How do I get wireless internet to work with openindiana?
My laptop has built-in wifi and I also have a USB edimax wifi adaptor.
I'm not sure how to check if openindiana is even detecting the on-board wifi and I don't know how to scan etc. with the USB adaptor when I plug it in (dmesg looks like it gives some sort of error when I plug it in so I'm not even sure if it is compatible or where I can find a list of compatible adaptors).
I have tried googling but I can't find anything.

Has anyone setup wireless internet on openindiana or does anyone have a link showing how to do it?

Quick searches may help, I found: https://wiki.openindiana.org/plugins...t/view/4883872
bu searching "openindiana wifi" maybe th link in "... third-party drivers from the*Free NIC project?"

Also, see if you could install ndiswrapper?
