My Wifi is not working correctly on my Laptop, via ethernet cable it's fine. Sometimes I'm able to connect, but most of the times not. If I'm 5 meters away from the router, there is no way I can connect. With Windows 8 everything is fine and working, so maybe I have somehow update the Wifi dirvers on Mint I'm kind of noob.
I'm using Mint 17.1
