Thread: Wireless Problems


please bear me - new this!

installed lubuntu 12.10 , love it. unfortunately can not wireless networking operational.

laptop packard bell r1935 ralink rt61 pci wireless adapter.

have tried realtek 8188cus usb adapter have.

enable wireless option greyed out in lubuntu - not sure why.

have tried use ndiswrapper install drivers , error message: module ndiswrapper not found.

in desperation have tried following os: lubuntu, xubuntu, slitaz , puppy. none got wireless working.

closest success got in xubuntu had correct drivers installed reported hardware switch off. however, there no wireless switch on laptop , enable key fn-f1 (which doesn't work).

have googled endlessly, tried sorts of suggested solutions , got nowhere. @ point input code reported there hard block on couldn't kill it.
