So here's the deal: I can't even get it to search for wireless networks.
I've enabled the3 restrictive driver. And it appears to detect the internal card, it just won't let me do anything wireless wise.
Here are the results for lshw -C network
PCI (sysfs)
*-network
description: Ethernet interface
product: RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller
vendor: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

And the results for iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
And here are my lspci results

I appreciate any help I can get. I really don't want to have to switch back to Windows or to buy a new external wireless card for my new laptop.
Oh! And I can't seem to update! It gives me an error and about half of the packages cannot download, seems to be all of the translation packages aren't coming through :(.
Help?
