Sparda Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Wireless is generally a big fall down with Linux, Ubuntu 7 (amongst other things) has a bigger emphasis on wifi and has the intention of making wireless hardware work better.

nickisgod1 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 backtrack for a live cd, nubuntu for an install, regarding your wireless what chipset? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain_Soph_Aur Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share Posted January 19, 2007 well, its realtek rtl8111b/8168b gigabit ethernet. Ok, im still a noob at linux, tryed some distros and stuff, but i always get back to ubuntu. There is so many questions i want to ask.... I boot with nubuntu livecd and can connect to internet with wire. but still no news about my wlan device. So, IF i can use the iwlist scanning and get a reading on my router. Will that say that my wlan device is up and running? With this info, can i then connect to my router? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
