We won't know what you are doing wrong if you don't explain what you are doing:
after installign dirvers for my wireless card
What do you mean? are you running ndisrapper -i <driver> ?
Or are you compiling and installing native drivers?
Or are you installing binary native drivers you got from another distribution?
Are you recompiling the kernel to include your drivers?
Or something else?

Please provide us with the following information:
- What puppy are you using?
- Brand, model, version of your network card.
- What commands are you using to 'install' the drivers?
- Type of wireless connection (managed to a router, ad-hoc to another computer, restricted/open, etc.
