alu:
in tinycore, try at the command line:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 up (i assume that wlan0 is the name of your wifi device)

then see if wlan0 is there with:

sudo iwconfig

if it is there, you can configure your device as you did it the first time; you can save your configuration by adding appropriate lines in your /opt/.filetool.lst and issuing a backup

in windows, you probably need to re-install the driver

Thank you very much for such a prompt reply -thilled.
I tried what you said in tiny core and I got a message that the wireless adapter couldn't be detected.  :-[

I then went back to widows googled a bit more and found

Oh Fix #1 Reboot the router -lets try that. (I was also doing yet another clean install -to be sure!)

Rebooting the router worked - just chose my network, entered the key and all was good.

Thank you again for the response.  I look forward to having another play with tiny core soon. I really love what I've seen so far -Cheers
