Welcome to forum. Please use a subject a bit more descriptive that help. Like:

Subject: Can't connect with wireless NIC Intel 2200BG

This is a popular NIC and there are a number of howto's. Use the search first and then move to google and I think you can find step-by-step instructions. I had one, but it went TU and I replaced it with a 2915. Edgy auto recognized and configured it. I would be surprised if it did not do the same with the 2200 as it has been around longer and plenty of vendors use that chip. Good luck. Here are a couple of links:
