I'm using a belkin UBS under Mandrake 10. It found the device and set it up out of the box. iwconfig and ifconfig both show it, but I can't ping the gateway. It's a secured lan and I am entering the key string using s:the_key_string. Works fine under XP, but not Mandrake. Should I diable the ethernet card? Is there some networkig fundamental I'm missing? Can't be a gateway problem as I can't ping that and it's on the same subnet.
All the docs seem to be about getting the device working, there is little on trobleshooting it, after this.

Help!!
