Suse 9.3 Kinternet Question


Hi..having a real problem getting connected.. I go into "KInternet" have a look at everything..it see's my network...it see's my wireless card..it see's my SSID, but I still can't get connected!!! If I double click the little plug icon, looks like its connecting...then stops. Really driving me crazy!!!

It will even show a couple of other wireless networks in my area...so I pick mine..enter the key, and it says I'm now connected....But I can't get on-line...any suggestions?? Thanks Mike

Did you try kwifimanager? Kinternet is a general tool for the connection, for wireless, there are better tools available.

If you don't see it in the menu, you can install it from the install CDs/DVD.

If you know the SSID, go into Yast, network connections and you can configure it manually.
