connecting to internet on beagleboard

Hi,

I have never had the beagleboard connected to the internet before, and
was wondering if someone could please help.

I have a Belkin 54g USB network adapter, which I have connected to the
beagleboard. The following is the result of me attaching it to the
hub, and lsusb below that:

Any ideas on how to fix this? I have my beagleboard attached to a
monitor with a keyboard and mouse, so I can configure everything from
there if needed.

Thanks

For those on the list that may want to help you out, could you please let everyone know what version of the BeagleBoard you have and the revision? It also be helpful to know the kernel revision and distribution that you are using as well…

Did you install the firmware for wifi adapter? (doesn't look like it ^^^..)

It varies by distro..

For example, in debian it's the "firmware-ralink" package..

http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/firmware-ralink
