haha Sweet! Well, I dunno maybe you're in love with me? :o HAHA

Btw! My wireless connection died while I restarted my computer. And now I can't connect again.

I allso got my built-in wireless card to work yesterday. That's the network card I want to work actually, so I won't have to connect my USB card that looks like As*! But after restart all options for that card dissapeard again. It's a much better card that my USb one... I'll try to install the windows drivers for that card in ndiswrapper soon.

Heh, Maybe I am.
Anyway don't turn straight to the windwos drivers, having the native linux drivers is much better so research them before you head straight for ndiswrapper.

Well, I did a little research yesterday to find the drivers for my built-in network card and I actually found the correct drivers for it and installed them through the terminal. It was the drivers for Atheros AR242x.
So It works really good now and I have no problems at all.
But it was a bit of a "project" to install those drivers though!

I can post the tutorial that I used to install them later.
