    how can i get feisty to detect my wireless adapter please please help

    I just installed feisty. This is my first time installing any linux system and need to know how to get it to detect my wireless usb (trendnet tew-424ub). I need to know how to have it detected and how to install drivers with no current internet access. Thanks in advance. I have read that this adapter works with this system and i even found the linux drivers on the web. I am not sure how to install them and i am not sure if the system should detect my device automatically at startup. My usb does work because my flash drive works.

    Can you give the output of the following command in konsole (kmenu--->System---->Konsole)

    Code:
    sudo lsusb

      I found a list and aparently my particular trendnet usb adapter is not supported, however i installed a linxys pci wireless wmp54g that is supported and the computer sees it, however i can not get it to connect. I select DHCP but i keep getting something telling me my default gateway is incorrect and i noticed it gives me an ip address that it should not be giving me. I put in my correct ssid and my correct wep key. I am currently restarting my router and my computer. Any help would again be appreciated.
