Dwl-g120

i'm trying to get this thing to work, which is a wireless usb card. dapper sees it and somehow sees my router when I go into network settings, and then to dns it shows my router. But I can't seem to make this thing work. and ideas. thanks.

You'll probably need some sort of driver for it, but which driver you need depends on the chipset it uses. Open up a terminal and type

lsusb

to find out which chipset you've got.

Try here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WirelessNetworking , here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto and here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Dri...iswrapperHowto .
As Giles says make sure you identify chipset - seems to be only a couple of choices tho for your adapter which is lucky.

the dwl-g120 use the ralink drivers - had this working perfectly under SuSe 10 64bit

just trying Ubuntu 64bit but using ethernet connection and not wireless

if run lsusb should get something like this
