Hello,

I succesfully installed driverloader 1.36. I can even connect to a
wireless network. However I cannot view websites or ssh over this
connection. If I run dmesg I see:

eth1: New link status: Disconnected (0002)
eth1:  at 00:09.0 (MAC address 00:90:4B:42:36:69) ready

If I run /sbin/iwconfig I see:

eth1      Scan completed :

So it seems I am connected, so why cant I use the network?

Thanks,

Mark.
