  I want to use my usb dongle with my pi.
  the firmware link is here,
  http://wiki.debian.org/carl9170
  using the terminal in raspbmc I enter

  wget http:// wireless. kernel.org/en /users/Drivers/carl9170/fw1.9.6? action=AttachFile&do =get&target= carl9170-1.fw - o carl9170-1.fw
  (I put the space so that qbn doesn't read it as a link)
  it gives me http error 403 forbidden

  anyone knows why it doesn't work, can't find anything with my googlefu
  sorry I'm pretty new at linux lingo
