Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get my wifi dongle to work on my Hardy. I used to have wired connection on this installation but I moved my house and have to connect wirelessly now. So i plugged the usb adapter (it's BLueNext BN-WD54G) and it can't see any wireless networks.
It's working fine with liveCD though.
here are the outputs of some commands on my installation (not the liveCD):
