Wireless Disabled in Debian Squeeze

ssher · 03-29-2012, 10:32 PM

I just installed debian squeeze but I cannot find wireless networks. When I try to connect to the networks, under wired connections its says: device not managed, and under wireless networks it says wireless is disabled. I've followed steps from different forums but none of them have worked. I'm not sure what I'm missing.

What is your wireless card? You may need to install drivers to use it if it is a non-free driver.
In a terminal type

Code:

lspci

and post the output here in a code box (the # at the top of the reply box) like I posted lspci in a code box.

Oh, actually I followed a forum that required me to install drivers like you said, It works now. Thanks for the follow up.
