Linksys WMP11 no IP address

Hi there,
I am trying out Linuxant on a Linksys WMP11. The card itself says is 
version 4, but Linuxant seems to think it's version 2.7. I installed 
both drivers, but Linuxant is favoring the v4 driver after all. But I 
have been unsuccessful in getting an IP address using ndiswrapper, so 
now I'm trying Linuxant, but so far no greater success. I have Fedora 
Core 3, with the latest kernel; everything seems fine there.

ifconfig:
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0F:66:3E:07:9E
         inet6 addr: fe80::20f:66ff:fe3e:79e/64 Scope:Link

         RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:288 (288.0 b)

iwconfig:

Any thoughts as to why I can't get an IP address? I"m really new to 
Linux, so please let me know if there is more info needed.
TIA
