Wireless and bluetooth on Zotac ZBox AD12 with Mint Maya
Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2012 6:51 pm
I'm trying to connect using wifi but have got pretty lost. Searching this forum for Zbox Nano AD12 says that all terms are ignored as they're too common! Fair enough, so I'm posting my own topic. It's taken quite a while to get the wireless card recognised (still can't get the bluetooth recognised) but despite all the entries I've made in network connections and MAC address in the MAC filter on the brightbox I still have to connect to the network with ethernet. Where am I going wrong? I have run mintWifi and result is below.

Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service smbd reload
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the reload(8) utility, e.g. reload smbd
