What is my deviceid for the wireless card??

Hi.. I installde ndiswrapper and i installed the driver from windows, and i think it was done correctly since it tells me.

bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present

but i dont know how to configure the card to connect!
i thought i would do the:

ndiswrapper -d deviceid driver

but i dont know the deviceid!
is this even what im supposed to be doing??
I'm using mandrake 10.0, just in case it matters
can someone help me??

It's probably:

Code:

---

eth1

---

or

Code:

---

wlan0

---

Ok thanks, i think i did that already..
Now... how do i connect to the internet??
I'm new, so bare with me...
Nooow.. i want to connect to the internet..
There is this New Connection option in Mandrake, but when I go there.. it asks me what type of connection, SO i choose wireless... Then it asks me which driver i want to use, and it gives me a list.. But the driver i installed in ndiswrapper doesn't appear there..

Is there another way to setup a connection?

Code:

---

ifconfig eth1 up

---

or

Code:

---

ifconfig wlan0 up

---

depending on which one you have.
Then do:

Code:

---

dhcpcd wlan0

---

or eth1, depends.

OK... my bad for not saying exactly what i did.
with
ndiswrapper --help, it said the devid is the PCIID or USBID, and i got the PCIID, so this is what is did.

ndiswrapper -d 14e0.3244.3 bcmwl5
**(dont remember the id but something like that)

and it apparently worked, but in /dev there is no file or device called eth1 or wlan0.
so when i do

ifconfig wlan0 up

it tells me it doesnt exist.. now when i also did

ndiswrapper -m

and i dont remember exactly what it said. but is said something about an ALIAS wlan0

Network devices don't have /dev entries. What does

Code:

---

ifconfig -a

---

say?

sorry.. i said i was new.. hehe.. this is what i got...
one more thing, im not sure if it it's relevant or not but, when the computer boots, there is a part where it says

bringing up interface eth0 [failed]
**(might not be the exact message, sorry im not accurate)

How many net interfaces do you have on this box?

well, im not quite sure what you mean..
i have a LAN card, which i think is the eth0
and i have a wireless network card.. that´s it..
i also have a modem...
is that what you were asking me?

Well then the module for ndiswrapper hasn't been properly added...
