PS. The wireless has no password.
It is unlikely you will get wireless cards running via the live CD. Usually you need the driver for your card and ndiswrapper. (Someone correct me: if the CD has ndiswrapper, and the driver is available via a mounted, writable, partition - then it is concevable that the wireless card will work in the usual way.)
