Unable to connect Dell Inspiron 6000 wireless

#1 Post by Dookus »

Hi all.

Inspiron 6000 eth0 is Intel 2200 module loading ipw2200.

Spent some time working on settings in the connection wizard (prefer Frisbee, but not included with this distro)



eth1 works (Wired Ethernet)

Command line gives same, looks connected but no throughput. .

Thanks

RTL8191S USB instead

Alternative to the problematic 2200 Intel WiFi

RTL8191S USB made by Comfast Model CF-300NS, what is the process of getting that recognised and running at start up?
