[Solved] Toshiba Network Manager Issue - No WiFi

Post by jbh911 »

Linux Mint 17 installed and no WiFi available and only part of Network manager installed.

#### Now strongly suspect issue due to internet not being connected during installation process. I have re-installed LM 17 with WiFi connected during installation - and guess what? No further issues with Network Manager, WiFi working fine.

:D

If linksys is your wifi router, get into the setings and disable TKIP as it will cause problems with your wifi

Will get on to correct laptop and make correction. Only choices are WEP key (hexadecimal), WEP key (ascii), WPA Personal & WPA2 personal.
I've tried both the latter but still no go.
