Thread: Unable to connect to wireless connection(Dell Inspiron 1300)


hi there everyone,

replaced dreamlinux install 9.10, since running on main machine. install went swimmingly , @ desktop in few minutes.

once there however, i've run snag. system doesn't seem able detect wireless networks. tried manually entering details, won't connect.

using dreamlinux, had enter wep key(it detected network without intervention) , i'm posting win install on same machine, know adapter working.

it's dell inspiron 1300. windows device manager states it's dell wireless 1470 dual band wlan mini-pci card. supported 9.10? i'd feel pretty silly getting rid of dreamlinux system couldn't use wireless on

in advance can me connected!
