Aspire One wireless connection problem
 

Hi everyone,

I do not have a wireless icon in the tray and cannot open Network Center to see if there might be a solution there. The wireless switch is on and yellow. I should tell you that the WiFi and Network Center were working fine until I opened Live Update and updated. Any ideas as to what to do next?

Model: Aspire One
Linpus Linux Lite v1.0.3.E
CPU Intel Atom CPU N270 @ 1.6GHz
Sys Mem 512 MB
Hard drive 8GB
BIOS vers v0.3109
WiFi Atheros AR5006EG 802.11 b/g Wireless PCI Express Adapter {rev 01)

Aspire One connection problem
 

I want to thank everyone for their input to this problem. The fix was:
open my files, my disk. Delete .gconf. Restart computer. Should now see icon in tray. Click on icon and connection manager opens. Select new and the type connection you have. Follow rest of instructions. You should be able to open browser.

Great; please mark the thread as solved using the thread tools just above the first post.

Arrrg this only solves the connection problem on a temp basis. Im lucky if my connection stays on for ten minutes. There must be a solution!!!
