Try using the System tools -> Lan&Wifi tool and setup your wireless network. Then it should work.

Pdaxrom Installation

Well, I have tried the LAN+Wifi settings, and the Wifi monitor shows that I have connection, and I'm positive it knows it's a Linksys Wifi CF card, but dillo still doesn't work and I can't ping google or anything. I set the wifi settings to wireless, automatic IP and "any" essid because I have no settings, but it still doesn't work. I have Kathrin RC9 I think with a 860 if any of this information helps. My wifi card worked before with Cacko and the sharp Rom, so there is a low chance of problems in my card or my AP...

Sorry for taking your guys' time!

Thanks

Still not working... the wifi indicator shows that I have a connection, but does that also mean that it's eating away my battery? There seems to be no on, or off for network button...

you can use the card applet to eject the card.

In a terminal if you do iwconfig do you see you card?
if yes it means that your network settings are wrong.

So the problem is your network settings.
Do you use wep? Did you check that you made no error with the key, can you ping you access point? etc etc..

Did you make sure that you set the network type to wireless in the wifi+lan settings program? It looks like you have set the settings correctly and saved.

Suddenly, this morning, it worked! I still don't understand how the wifi is on and off, is it like while the card is in, it's having a connection and taking up my battery, and when I take it out it stops?

I don't like the dillo browser very much, so I will switch to Firefox, and things to personify my pdaXrom, so now I have to learn to install programs and stuff, so I'll do a search for that.

Again, thank you very much for all your help, in using my new, lovely ROM, pdaXrom!
