it is on a msi s270. only using 32bit kanotix easter rc4. It is installed, loads when I boot the computer. This is what I get from various commands:
"root@KanotixBox:~# ifconfig
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:09:2A:8E:E9
inet addr:192.168.1.101 Bcast:192.168.1.254 Mask:255.255.255.0

root@KanotixBox:~# ndiswrapper -l
Installed drivers:
neti2220 driver installed, hardware present"
I thought I did everything I was told too in the ndiswrapper wiki and found myself with an unreadable network interfaces,
and a network which wouldn't load,so eventually deleted the files I created.
Following the removal of everything I created I am back to the situation above which is where I started. The ndiswrapper wiki says I cannot find an ap. As in essid off/any. It works fine in windows xp. I have no encryption running as the router craps out if I try to run wep or wpa.
I am so close to having kanotix usuable day to day this is so frustrating.
Hopefully someof you can help.

Thanks,
yep, that is how I did it. My past experience with dhclient hasn't been helpful but I will try again.

How do I turn off eth0 (probably ethernet)and eth1(probably bluetooth) and get wlan0 to correctly start?
