I'm a little confused as to what's going on, I followed mojo's advice from a few different posts that came up in google searches but no success. definitely at a loss for what to do next.

Maybe you downloaded the firmware tazpkg but didn't install it?

Step 2. below installs the firmware.

[*][c]# wget http://people.slitaz.org/~mojo/stuff/ipw2200-firmware-3.1.tazpkg[/c]

[*][c]# tazpkg install ipw2200-firmware-3.1.tazpkg[/c]

[*][c]# modprobe -r ipw2200[/c]

[*][c]# modprobe ipw2200[/c]
