wirechief Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I installed Ndiswrapper and the radio is on however i am not able to see a wireless network, I tried adding it to the network manager but the essid is not showing,. I am not sure why but am unable to use iwconfig wlan0 essid nameofessid i am not useing any wpa or anything. Any suggestions ? I do have a wired connection but want to make the wireless work so i dont need the cable drapped over things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wirechief Posted March 13, 2010 Author Share Posted March 13, 2010 I love it when i can answer my own problems. I installed wireless-tools and now my wifi is detected and works fine. it got removed during the install as not being needed along with a bunch of other packages, I didnt have the option of keeping it.
