issue the command iwconfig I get :
sit0 no wireless extensions.

I still can not connect to my wireless network, Where do i configure my
wireless key and ESSID ?
man iwconfig. You should start with "iwlist scan" to be sure your ap is
seem, then iwconfig after that.
I was looking at this the other day, wondering if it was worth adding
wpa software to my older installation, given that I use the wireless
only as an untrusted connection and then set up a vpn to my firewall
before any real data goes over the connection.
