When you go to set up your wireless in the laptop, there is a good chance that your internal wireless won't be supported and you'll end up using the Windows driver and ndiswrapper in Linux. It's not all that difficult, IF you follow the steps to the letter. Here is an absolutely easy and exact procedure for setting up the wireless with ndiswrapper...best I've ever found and it works for me.

As for your current problem, I'm not sure what's going on there, but I'm sure someone will be able to help here. I use SUSE 10.0 but not in a dual boot system. Only Linux and with the same router you are using. Mine just automatically sets up when installing SUSE and has done so for the last two or three SUSE releases. I've never had to set up anything manually.

Regards,

This is a double post. Please see the other thread that you started for more information on your wired connection.
