New to Linux and need help please to set up my wireless I am using Linux Mint 12 "Lisa" on a Toshiba Satellite Pro M70 with an Intel Pro W/less 2200B/G card installed. The device finds my router and asks for the password then try's to connect but fails I've tried disabling the security and turned off access list protection. Any help appreciated, thankyou.
Cheers Eddie
Hello and Welcome.
please post the output of
Code:ifconfig -a
Code:lspci -knn
You may need to use sudo for those commands.Code:dmesg |grep -i firmware
Hi Mike,
Thanks for your input, have managed to get the router to accept the Toshiba. It was rejecting the Mac address resetting the router cured it. Up to now pleased with LinuxMint "lisa" runs like a dream.
cheers Eddie:)
Awesome, glad you got it working. Feel free to mark this thread as solved from the thread tools at the top of page.
Hi, eddxx.
Glad you got your issue solved!
Just remember to reconfigure any security settings in your router after resetting it!;)
Yes, it is amazing how many problems are cured by utilizing "the big red switch"... :-)
