Ok, Got my wireless card working and it sees the SSID broadcast. I have tested this with it being off, on, and then on without encryption and it saw the changes, so I'm fairly certain that the card is working fine.
I try and initiate the card with KNetworkManager, and it gets to 57% then asks for my passphrase again when encryption enabled, and when no encryption it goes to 28% and then dies. Something in the line of the IP Configuration.
I had wanted to get online and check for updates so I connected the laptop into my hub via ethernet and it connected fine, or so I thought, because I still can not get connected to the net even though it's reading that it's connected.
Anyone have a clue of what I can check to fix this?
thanks a ton again, hopefully I'll get this last hurdle over with and be running a mobile linux machine today
oh yea, i'm using 10.1
