Wireless isssue. Yes, another wireless thread.

[severed]

The first second one, linksys, being my network.

Everything looks to be working as it should. Can you describe what is happening when you try to connect?

Try

sudo iwconfig eth2 essid "linksys"
sudo dhclient eth2

[severed]

The option to connect is not even there, in the wireless box on the network manager my network doesn't even show up.

iwconfig: unknown command "linksys"

Hmm, I'm at a loss why the networkmanager doesn't see anything.

Do you have a wired connection?

You might want to try a different network manager.

sudo apt-get install wicd

[severed]

I will try that. Thanks for your help, man.

[severed]

Worked like a charm!

Thanks again, man.

Glad it worked. Networkmanager is a little buggy sometimes. Hopefully something that will be fixed someday.
