I don't get it, is my post too short, not enough information?
Is it really that hard?

Nothing, I can't belive that it's not possible to make this **** work :S
Re: [Mint 6.0] D-Link DWL 120+ network problem
Hi,
Apparently it's recognized but it doesn't manage to get an IP. Try the following:
- make sure your wireless router doesn't use any encryption or any kind of security (try that first, and once that works, then you can add encryption)
- bring down eth0 (sudo ifconfig eth0 down)
- give an IP to wlan0 which is on the same network as your router (sudo ifconfig wlan0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx up)
- try to ping your router
If the ping succeeds then there is hope. If it doesn't then we need to look for another driver or something...
