Hi Raenan, You seem to be new here, so just a couple of pointers. Firstly make sure you Reply All, and CC linux-wireless when replying. Secondly, most of us are volunteers and do support in our spare time, so don't expect a prompt reply. Also, please don't top post - if I replied only with this paragraph, I'd be top posting, my response, below your quoted message is bottom posting and is the best way to format your emails for mailing lists like this one.

Is there a clear step by step command line prompt to follow? What exactly are you trying to do? Firstly, I have to ask the standard questions: 1. Which distribution are you using and what version? 2. What kernel version are you using? 3. Are you using compat-wireless and if so, what version? 4. What type of card are you trying to use? Running "lspci" or "lsusb" should help identify it. 5. Have you installed the firmware for it? (If applicable) 6. Is it detected by the kernel? i.e. if you run "dmesg", are there lines referencing the card? But back to your questions. Are you using a graphical user interface, e.g. Gnome, Unity or KDE? If so, you should install Network Manager or wicd as this will take care of configuring your wireless card and do it in a nice user-friendly manner. If you don't, then the simplest way is to use wpa_supplicant to manage the wireless card. Your distribution should provide a manual with it (try running "man wpa_supplicant") which will describe how to configure it. Please let us know how you go.
