Re: Wireless Doesn't See Any Connections
I first installed MINT 12 on my old Acer laptop. Wifi was fine at first but then I couldn't see any networks and could connect at all. I tried reinstalling, installing 11 and 10 but the same thing kept happening. I wiped the hard drive completely, installed MINT 12 but didn't allow any level 3 updat...

Re: AR9285 Linux Mint 12 - cannot connect to wireless networ

Further update, I've managed to reinstall MINT 10 and the wireless is working. Below is the result of mintWifi.

Re: Lost Wifi connection
Can no one help with this at all? As an update, I installed MINT 12 and removed XP in the process. When the laptop first booted I could connect wirelessly as normal but after a reboot all the wireless networks had disappeared. I then reinstalled MINT 10 but still can't see any wifi networks. Thanks,

Re: Wi Fi Staying Connected after Quitting
Right, I may have solved my problem myself.
Under Control centre > Network connections, click the wireless tab and select the network. Click edit and at the top there is a 'connect automatically' option. Tick it and I'm hoping it's sorted.

Sorry to bump this but I have the same problem. I can connect to my wifi network fine but need to do it every time I boot up. Can I do something to make the laptop connect automatically?
Thanks
