Dear Friend:
I installed wicd for wireless connection. But it can't find and AP here. Very strange, iw command can scan all the network. Why?
Need your help, Thanlks in advance. _________________ AMD64 Desktop

Make sure you specify the correct wifi device in wicd's configuration. With a new installation on my laptop, it defaults to just nothing instead of wlan0, and when it does that it can't find any networks. |
