I installed Mandriva 2008.
I have a Belkin wireless nic card.
I have ndiswrapper wrapper installed.
The bcm43xx driver is installed.

In the 'configure your computer' program, my machine seems to see the nic but it doesn't connect.

what do i do now?

this driver does not always work you must blacklist it in order to use ndiswrapper

It is blacklisted....
Here's my modprobe.conf

alias sound-slot-0 snd_cs46xx
install scsi_hostadapter /sbin/modprobe sata_sil; /sbin/modprobe usb_storage; /bin/true
install usb-interface /sbin/modprobe uhci_hcd; /bin/true
install ide-controller /sbin/modprobe piix; /bin/true
blacklist bcm43xx
alias eth1 dmfe
