Do you know any website that will give clear instructions on how to get 
wireless to work with Kubuntu? It appears to detect my wireless card OK, 
but nothing I do seems to enable it to connect to my Firewall/router.  
Of course, it works fine if I attach an Ethernet cable. I probably just 
don't understand how to set it up.  I put in the SSID and the 10 hex 
digit WEP code that I use for Windows, but that doesn't seem to work. 
There does not appear to be anything like what is available in Windows 
that shows all the Wireless nets within range.

I did ask this before on the list, but never received any replies, so 
thought I would try again.
