Really, I just don't understand it. The last time I installed Intrepid on my laptop my internal wireless card (BCM4306 rev 03) worked out of the box, and that's what it says on the wiki as well. Now not only is that not working, but my Cisco 340 PCMCIA card doesn't seem to connect either.
The PCMCIA card worked at my house, but now I'm down with relatives in Indiana. I am hooked up via ethernet right now, and just can't figure out what's wrong.
I even updated the distro to the Jaunty alpha, and that didn't help. Is it a bad install? I really can't do anything about that until I get home later this week, so I'm hoping someone can help.
Here's the rundown: Both my internal Broadcom card and the Cisco PCMCIA card are detected. The problem is no networks are listed in the menu when I click the network icon. (And my uncle has confirmed that there are networks around us that don't hide their networks, including his, so I should be able to see them.) Further more, when I choose to add a hidden wireless network, I can do all that fine, but when it comes to connect it just sits there trying for a few minutes then comes back with nothing.
Help? :\
