Hi group,

I'm trying to connect at the library to their wifi(Open network, no key 
required), but it's not working so I moved to one of their own machines to send 
this. 

Here's the steps I took:

cat /proc/net/wireless gives me the interface wlan0

ifconfig wlan0 up

iwlist wlan0 scan reveals the network name, the chan.

iwconfig wlan0 essid "Network Name"

iwconfig wlan0 chan 1

ping somebody.com gets unknown host.

dmesg:
...
wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:58:fb:8c:b1
wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1e:58:fb:8c:b1
wlan0: authenticated
wlan0: associate with AP 00:1e:58:fb:8c:b1
wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:1e:58:fb:8c:b1
wlan0: associated

I know the system is working because I see others here working with their 
Windows laptops.

Maxim
