After spending hours trying to setup a (cheap Chinese USB wireless
adapter) I thought I'd ask here for some kind soul to walk me
through it.
It appears it is supported - I have the ralink-firmware installed, but
when Debian (sid) boots it tries dhcpdiscover 255.255.255.255 about 10
times then gives up after getting no reply.
This is lsusb:

My computer is connected to a wired/wireless DLink router, which is
setup properly as a friend connected instantly on his tablet.
It seems to me doing a dhcpdiscover on 255.255.255.255 doesn't make
sense (to me).
I have been through gnome-nettool several times and all the settings
appears to be correct.
Help anyone ?
Thanks
