Thanks a lot. I just got a chance to test this. Unfortunately, it doesn't "work". In other words: 1) I put the above in my /etc/network/interfaces 2) I commented out any lines with eth0 for good measure 3) but when I boot up and ping, I get: ping -c 5 www.google.com ping: unknown host www.google.com Then, as per my original message, when I: su iwconfig wlan0 key xxxxxxxxxx essid my-network dhclient wlan0 ... it works. > Also, make sure that ndiswrapper gets loaded before /etc/init.d/networking Maybe this is the problem. How do I make sure ndiswrapper is loaded before networking? ... I'm clueless about how to control start-up scripts. martin
