problem connecting to wifi
« on: July 15, 2015, 04:12:53 PM »
Hi
I have the following wifi inside my laptop:
Code: [Select]
Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection (rev 05)with both trusty and vivid wifi.sh doesn't connect, it tries to get an ip with dhcp but it fails.
with trusty I can connect using the enlightenment  connection manager module, but it fails in vivid.
Code: [Select]

My ipw2200 wireless on my laptop is slowly going out, so I am not really able to verify wifi.sh working or failing for that device.

I do have a usb wireless I use ndiswrapper with, I will try to see if I can find out anything.

Hi,
If it helps, with Trusty I don't have problems with wifi.sh, nor in my notebook with integrated wifi nor my desktop with an usb-wireless

dCore-trusty.15.07.11
