Post by MFHAAS »

i cannot seem to get my wireless Internet card to sign into my router in Linux Mint.
i can get it to work with no trouble in windows.
I've update the B43 wireless driver that Mint suggested.
I can find my network but I cannot log into it. I've even tried turning off the security with out much luck.
i have a Zonet ZEW1620 useing a D-link DIR-655

If this is a laptop and it's easy enough to find a open network (hotel,coffeeshop), I'd try to get on another open network in order to rule out the dlink router.

Best I can suggest might be to reset the router.

I have an old router i can hook up i'll try that tomorrow.
would reseting the router really make a difference for one single computer? the other computers seem to be picking up the signal just fine.

I've had some say that they did that and then were able to connect again, if the others are Linux computers then probably not.Did you try ifdown and ifup in a terminal.
