Ubuntu WLAN-NG Problems!

[akseli]

Ok, now, I've gotten most of my hardware to work on Ubuntu but there are still a few "small" problems. The first of which will be treated in this post.
I plugged in my USB wireless adapter (generic) which has a PRISM2 chipset. I attempted to get this to work using NDISWRAPPER but no luck. So after some research I found something called, WLAN-NG. I thought, GREAT! this is made for my device, I mean it's made for prism2 devices and it has a USB driver which should make my adapter work ... wrong.
I went through the readme file and followed all the installation instructions but to no avail. I googled for some other help and found a few pages which gave me contradictory instructions. I followed most of them and found that althoguh the card was connected and "airfart" found that I was connected to my AP (akseli) I couldn't ping anything, not even my AP.
Could someone please type-up or post a link to a full HOWTO that actually works for this type of cards? Thank you

you need to
1. Associate to the AP (ssid, encryption, etc)
2. Up the interface (ifconfig wlan1 up, replace ath0 with your device)
3. Run DHCP to get an IP Address, (dhclient, dhcpcd ath0) to receive an IP Address.

Yeah, I know what I have to do, but I need more indepth (walkthrough) instructions as to do how I should go about doing this.
