ESSID address question for wifi
I would like to get wireless set up in my laptop but when I go to do so it is asking for the essid address. How do I obtain that from my wireless router?

Probably a dumb question but I can't seem to figure out how to get this wireless card up and running in vector. Any suggestions?

Log into the router and look in the Wireless Settings section. There will be an input box with the SSID listed in it.

Without knowing the make/model of the router, I can't be more specific than that.
