Yes, It tries to connect. I get the "wireless network authentication required" Click, and it tries and fails and comes back and wants authentication again. Little icon comes up says im offline.

If eth1 is showing as your wireless interface, then wl, possibly the wrong driver, is still loaded. Please try again:Verify that wl is NOT loaded and b43 is:Code:sudo modprobe -r wl sudo modprobe b43ONLY b43 should be listed. Now see if your interface is wlan0:Code:lsmod | grep -e wl -e b43Now does it try to connect?Code:iwconfig

I don't think I see what I'm supposed to.....? I'm guessing b43 0 means it's not loaded?

b43 is loaded correctly. You now have an interface wlan0. Does it scan?Does it try to connect?Code:sudo iwlist wlan0 scan

Crumbs!
I get "Interface does not support scanning"
Is b43 still loaded and not wl? Do you need to repeat the sequence first?Code:sudo modprobe -r wl sudo modprobe b43

Now I'm getting beyond confused (if that is possible) I'm not sure what you're asking me.... I ran these two commands and get:
blackie@sherpa:~$ sudo modprobe -r wl
[sudo] password for blackie:
blackie@sherpa:~$ sudo modprobe b43
blackie@sherpa:~$ suod modprobe -r wl
No command 'suod' found, did you mean:
Command 'sudo' from package 'sudo' (main)
Command 'sudo' from package 'sudo-ldap' (universe)
suod: command not found
blackie@sherpa:~$ sudo modprobe b43
blackie@sherpa:~$
This doesn't look good I suspect
