Ok an when I run Knoppix it will not install anything just run Knoppix from the CD?

Im not going back G4 has screwed up for the last times.

Ok so plug the router to the modem put the pci card in the other computer run the setup then start surfing the web.

When you download Knoppix do you just burn it to a CD or do you need to make an .iso?

Do you need an access point or can the wireless adapter talk directly with the router?
