New to linux, just finishing setting up Linux Mint 8 Helena Main Edition.
My problem is that in the list that pops up when you click the network icon, my wireless network isn't there.
I can connect to the other networks in the list from around the street but my network isn't there.
I have tried connecting as if to a hidden network with no luck.
The internet works just fine through a wired connection.
The router is a Netgear DG834N
The SSID is broadcasted
The security type is WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]
My windows box finds and connects just fine. But Mint can't seem to find it.
I used the Windows Wireless Drivers app to install the driver for my wireless PCI card (Netgear WG311)
