Lisi, I hope you're not offended if I ask if you have configured the network cards via Yast yet? It's just that I haven't seen any mention of it in the thread and the wired nic card defaults are ususally enough to get a connection, but wireless often is not.
(System, Yast, enter root password, Network Devices, Network Setting).
This is where you highlight each nic card setting - one for wired, one for wireless in your case, and can then edit the settings. Once you complete the network connections page, click on next and you'll be able to enter the ESSID of the network, any encryption keys, etc. Clicking on finish should save all the settings.
Now you should be able to use knetwork manager to make the connection.
If one uses the user-driven method, i.e. networkmanager, there is no need for YaST. YaST is only need for the traditional-method in which case networkmanager is not started anymore.
