I don't think so... the laptop supports IEEE 802.11 G. I have two routers here and it can't connect to either one of them. If I boot into Win7 then it works fine. Security is WPA2... it is all common protocols and encryption that I would be surprised if it was that. I don't know enough about Linux to troubleshoot it. Maybe the driver but I wouldn't know where to go for other drivers.

Are the router and your laptop using the same wireless protocol ? Could there be a mismatch there ?

I can't get the Wifi to work... it sees my router but won't connect. All settings appear right... I am no Linux expert.. but just keeps trying to connect without resolving the connect or giving an error message. The only kind of support I can find for Elementary 0 consists of chat group on the web site that where there are lots of questions and no answers for anybody. Elementary 0 is Ubuntu based so I figure if I can find a good Ubuntu email group, or forum maybe I can get some help.... any body know of a good Utuntu user group / forum / email list? Thanks w
