Tiptop, that OpenSolaris Developer Preview2 build 79b you are using is ancient 
history and I highly recommend that you do not use it. The "build 79b Developer 
Preview" was an only half-way functional prototype that had a lot of wireless 
networking bugs in it. It was used by programmers who write code for the 
OpenSolaris project as a test platform months before "the real OpenSolaris" was 
released to file bugs and make improvements. 

In the last two years, almost all of those wireless networking bugs that I 
mentioned above have been fixed and a lot of improvements have been made, so I 
strongly recommend that you download a newest stable version of OpenSolaris 
which is called:

  OpenSolaris 2009.06 build snv_111b

You can download it and find more information about it here:

  http://www.opensolaris.com/

and you can also download it from here:

  http://www.genunix.org/distributions/indiana/osol-0906-x86.iso


Download OpenSolaris 2009.06 build 111b, boot up in to the live CD and run the 
device driver utility to make sure that all of your hardware is supported (if 
it's not don't worry, we can probably find the drivers for your hardware 
somewhere). The live CD has a feature called "NWAM" that should automatically 
detect your wireless network just like Microsoft Windows does and you should be 
able to click on the wireless network icon with your mouse and connect to it.

After you're satisified that everything is working on the Live CD, click on the 
"Install" icon, and voila, you now have a working OpenSolaris install that has 
thousands of packages and other cool things that weren't in that old dinosaur 
release from two years ago.
