I just installed Ubuntu in my old toshiba due to lack of windows driver support (go figure)

I love it so far but I had to unsecured my wireless to make it work. The Orionco wireless card in here supports wireless Encryption through good old WEP but not WPA. I had a code in the router, and I tried to enter it in the network settings menu.

it may be a driver issue and I'm looking into that, but I saw a few other users using this old laptop when I went to fix the video resolution issue earlier so I figure someone might know what I need to do.

I really dont want to leave my network open, so I hope someone gets back to me soon
