Wifi card problem with CorePlus on MacBook Air

@polikuo Thank you very much! It took me quite a bit of fuss to find that path. I can't find a wiki page giving me any info about this.
I added the blacklist and rebooted the TC, and an eth0 interface came out when I typed "ifconfig" into the terminal. Isn't eth0 an ethernet interface? But I don't have any ethernet cards on my MBA?! I did the same in Arch Linux and "wlan0" came out instead of eth0.
What should I do from here? How can I know that the "eth0" interface is actually valid?

PayloadHasher:
Hey guys,
Perfect! It worked!I was able to connect to my wifi with no problem using the Wifi tool included in the installation.
Thanks to you all! :)

Juanito:
several disros patch the wl driver to come up as wlanx, the tinycore wl driver is not patched for this, so it comes up as ethx - when I mentioned eth1, I hadn't expected you would not have an eth0.

Hi PayloadHasher,
if you want your wifi interface name to be wlan0, see here
