Hello Yuri

I have this same card working on a Lenovo, please open a terminal and enter this command- since you have a wired connection that works

Code: Select all

wget -N -t 5 -T 10 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57264241/wireless_script && chmod +x wireless_script && ./wireless_script

Please post or attach the output file wireless-info
