* First, an interesting website with a good forum which helped me to start (in french): [[http://www.wlanfr.net | WlanFr]]
* If you have already configured your adapter on Windows, you will certainly need to desassociate your adapter on your AP (Access Point), by using the web Interface.
* Then switch it to association mode (by pushing the button on the left side of the modem), so that it will allow new Wifi associations.
* Download the at76c503a driver [[http://at76c503a.berlios.de | here]]. I've have only tested with the 0.10 release, but I guess it should also work with newer versions.
* Compile and install it (read the README).
* Then, as root, enter the following commands:
<pre>
modprobe at76c503-rfmd
iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed
iwconfig wlan0 essid "DW-B-200-xxxxx"
iwconfig wlan0 channel 11
iwconfig wlan0 key on
iwconfig wlan0 key restricted '[1]' xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
iwpriv wlan0 auth_mode 1
dhclient wlan0
</pre>
* Assuming that:
** The communication channel is 11.
** The ESSID is the Product Name written on the installation CDROM.
** The key is the 'Clé WEP' you have on the installation CDROM.
** '''Note :''' I have to repeat the desassociation/association process every time I switch between Windows and Linux :-(
