Hi everybody,
Super new to Linux in general, but seem to be having an issue connecting to my router in LinuxMint 13 Cinnamon 64-bit. Every time I try to connect, it does prompt me for encryption key/password, however, does not allow me to input more or less (exactly) 5 characters. I went in and manually set the security/password, however, it just won't connect at all. My wireless adapter card is a Rosewill one, RNX-N250PC2.
I do feel like I'm missing something obvious, but any advice would be greatly appreciated.
