It's working without any issues on my trendtac epc700 + external zd1211b usb 
stick + kernel 2.6.24.3(uImage_RV10) + lennyflux.

 

Could be different reasons why not working:

- or your wep / wpa setting is wrong (try wireless-lan app to see if you find 
any wireless host and setup correct crypting)

- or udev is not working (check lsusb, should show your wifi adapter)

- or zd1211 firmware is not loaded (check dmesg, it should show correct 
firmware loaded when ifup eth1)

- your wifi from netbook is different as zd1211rw and need a different kernel 
driver.

- kernel could be different, which do not load zd1211rw correctly. try 
http://projects.kwaak.net/twiki/pub/Epc700/KernelPort26Compiling/uImage_RV10

- or I added some tricks later on which may not be included in 
rvfluxlenny.tar.bz2 ..
