I'm trying to set up internet on my computer, and I got everything working with ndiswrapper and wpa_supplicant, but I can't get the DHCP to work. I tried to do `dhclient wlan0` like the ndiswrapper wiki suggests, but it didn't recognize the command. This is especially strange, since I had it working before, and I'm pretty sure that was the command I used. So I did some searching here on the forum, and from what I can see, DSL doesn't have dhclient, and we're supposed to pump. Once again, strange, since I know I didn't use any command remotely similar to `pump` my first time doing this. Nothing has changed with my network since then, and I'm using the exact same version of DSL. How could this be possible?

What you have to do is go to the "System / Control Panel" command and then click on the LWCONFIG (caps are mine) command.  That will give you the entry points you need to add the security key, the SSID, the channel and the device name (probably wlan0).

You could've used some network utility, such as netcardconfig perhaps.  Or you just forgot.
