For those of you whom have help me before I'd like to bother you for one last thing. Is it possible to have my wireless internet with YDL v6 and if so where do I go to read information on how to configure it?

Yes - it's possible... however - it depends on what platform you're running YDL on.

If you're running it on a Mac, there's a few steps you have to follow. Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac, so I don't know the exact steps. I think folks follow this procedure:
For Apple users, install wireless firmware.

Then, follow it with this one:
How to configure Wi-Fi for use in YDL v.6.1 and higher

If you're running it on a PS3 - which is what I'm running it on - you can use these tips & tricks:
Wireless tips and tricks for YDL 6.1

You can use Scenario 3. If you're using 6.2, you shouldn't need the additional patches I mention after scenario 3 for wicd.

Cheers,
Paul
