Actually that is where I started. had to enable and start NetworkManager per your excellent instructions in order to get a connection to the AP. Best I could tell the system saw the card and I was able to issue various commands such as iwlist scan and it reported the APs in this area. But I was never able to get a connection to the AP. I kept getting that generic error about no link and to check the cable connection. -- Scot L. Harris webid@xxxxxxxxxx How many weeks are there in a light year?
