Connection via Wi-Fi

[James Inness]

I have chosen to use a wireless connector for my machine. Is there a way to connect to my Wi-Fi without having to use an Ethernet cable?

If this is a duplicate, could you please link me to the original? Thanks, James.

These two sites both have good instructions:
http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/wireless.html

You will have to figure out your computers wifi adapter name.

sysctl net.wlan.devices Will help you find your wireless adapter name.

How else would one connect to a wireless network?
