First you'll need to download the firmware in the /tmp directory.
# cd /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware # tar xzf /tmp/ipw2100-fw-1.3.tgz
You'll need to locate and dowload the ipw2100-source package. It's currently in the unstable section.
# apt-get install module-assistant wireless-tools # dpkg -i ipw2100-source_0.56-1_all.deb # module-assistant prepare # module-assistant a-i ipw2100
Next you'll need to configure you're wireless access. Put the
following stanza in the file /etc/network/interfaces:
iface eth1 inet dhcp wireless_essid belkin54g wireless_key 419e0f8585ffbff42e90df4246
Reboot your computer. Start your wireless interface by typing ifup
eth1. If everything went fine you should have a wireless connection.
