Hello

I use linux mint and everything was ok until now.I don't remember doing sth and suddendly i can't connect any more.It shows that connection estamblished but it doesn't work.I try firefox,konqueror ,console but nothing.

I use madwifi and the application wicd for connecting.I don't use network-manager.

Thanks!

Try running (as root) ifconfig and iwconfig, and post the results - as a starting point.
