All, I purchased the wi-pi adapter from Newark Electronics (I bought my raspberry pi from them, too) and I'm able to ping my router (and any website), and I can get on the Internet by using the Lynx bowser (text only). If I run startx I can't get on the Internet by using Midori or any other web browser; unable to resolve. If I enter the ip address of the web page, it still won't load (that's the error message, "unable to load"). I'm also using a hub I purchased from Newark, that's passive; i.e., no power. I purchased a powered hub, but that didn't help. I'm going to try troubleshooting this tonight, but if anybody can send me a solution before then (or any other time), I'd appreciate it.
