help needed to establish connection to the Internet on openSUSE

8
Hello!
I've recently installed openSUSE 10.2. Well, so far everything was great except one thing.
I've got WIFI and have no idea how to configure it. I would be grateful if anyone could help me out with establishing connection to the Internet.
Good day.

First of all I found a linux driver for my Wireless card which Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 (or something). While trying to install that I faced another problem that has to do with ieee...At the moment (due to several reasons) I have to reset openSUSE on my laptop and then try again all that stuff with wireless (I am going to do that quite soon). Well, i believe that help will be needed.
Thanks in advance
