the Handbook section dealing with wireless.  It's a little daunting at
this time, and I haven't yet been able to make sense out of it with

process understandable would be much appreciated.

Can you post the dmesg?

Assuming that particular device has a working driver, you can probably
use ifconfig for most of the wireless settings.

This indicates the ed driver works for this card.
