Then you need to use some iwconfig commands to configure the card.
iwconfig --help
For example:
iwconfig eth1 essid essid-of-your-wireless-router
iwconfig eth1 enc restricted Your-WEP-key
When you get a connection this can all be automated.

How is your wireless router setup?
1. Is ESSID hidden or public?
2. Do you need a WEP key to connect?
