Ubuntu Setup Help?

Hallo!

I just downloaded and installed Ubuntu vers 7 (I burned it and created a live CD for now). I have used linux before in my high school computer repair class, but not ubuntu and we didn’t go into depth.

I am just playing around learning it, but a hinderence is the fact that the internet won’t work.

My parents have a wirelss router setup, and im trying to connect to that, (it is encrypted).

I have a windows xp media center, 1gig ddr ram, ati mobility radeon x600 256MB graphics card, AMD 64 mobile Athelon processor Gateway Notebook.

Any help? Also, could someone please elaborate on ubuntus versio of the CLI? can’t remember what it’s called right now, srry.

Thanks! if i get more info, ill let u know
oh yea! the CLI like thing is SUDO, ha!

How can I prepare a Linux live CD?

I have Knoppix ISO (690MB) on a CD. This is the only file on the CD. But it doesn’t boot PC. Do I need to have any extractor on the CD or extract the ISO files on CD or hard disk? Boot order of PC is O.K. If there is any other better ISO, preferably a smaller one in size, please inform that too as I have never used Linux. Does the PC setup require any changes to run Linux as currently I am using XP?

What Linux distro am I looking for (see details)?

Same setup as Ubuntu, but, has flash media, plays dvds, and can be installed or run from a live cd/dvd. Dose this even exist, link that is closet to what i want will be chosen as the best, ofcorse.
Never mind, an answer from a previous question also helped here. if you know any other than easy ubuntu, go ahead, it could be helpfull.
