you need to download the amtel drivers ??
- or more like google for: "voyager 1010" drivers
http://linuxdrivers.foundries.sourceforge.net/comments.pl?sid=7303
than do some combinations of the following
( you need to know how to add new routes and stuff )
ifconfig wlan
route ...
( you need to kow what the wireless options means )
iwconfig [ wireless options you want ]
iwlist scan
ping other-wireless-ap
other wireless drivers
