64 Studio can't get on internet, help please

[doug1962]

I have recently installed 64 Studio. I want to do a lot of video editing and sounds like this is the distro for the job. I must admit that after installing it that the interface does look a bit dated nowadays and it is a bit sluggish compared with other Linux distros. Not sure if I will stick with it but, anyway I can't get the system to recognize my wireless card or it seems that way.
I am not that familiar with the way Linux picks this up so any suggestions on what might be wrong and how to get connected is much appreciated.
I have selected and configured the wireless connection with the ESSID and password, etc but, the check box for the wireless connection does not remain checked.
I can save the details and exit the program but, when I come back into it to check status the box is unchecked again which leads me to believe the wireless card is not being detected.
I have struggled to get assistance from the 64 Studio forum - sorry guys but, I can wait forever.
thanks for reading this.
