Cant get my Linux laptop to connect to intarwebz.

Flaw3dLegacy · 04-13-2008, 07:49 AM

I have my linux computer hardwired into a wireless adapter, so it should connect automatically. Well now it wont connect at all and its been saying its never been connected. Help meh, for great justice.

Do you have the ethernet drivers installed?

**PoN** · 04-13-2008, 04:36 PM

such as a Linsys driver. Found on their site usually.

ah ok. it should be the linksys.

But whats weird is i didnt have to install it the first time. It was connected for around.....5 minutes? Then it just wouldnt connect.

Did you update anything in those five minutes or change anything you can think of?

zachnehrenberg · 04-15-2008, 02:44 PM

hmmm. I don't know the most about linux, but you could try to reinstall the driver, or it could even be a hardware problem. Try connecting it to a different computer to see if it's the hardware.
