Wireless doesn't work on any distro
And when I say any distro, it's any distro.
I came back home from vacations, from USA I came back to Canadá, I tried wireless and nothing. I'm a slave of the cable. I was using Mint, then tried live CD's of Ubuntu, Mageia and Fedora and nothing. Installed Ubuntu, and nothing...
GUYS: I now some things are in SPANISH but I think you will understand anyway

The modem is a D-LINK DIR 601
Re: Wireless doesn't work on any distro
how long have you had the modem? if it is over a year then call your isp to replace it.
how long have you had the wireless card? if it is more than 5 years I suggest you buy a new one.
it also might be the driver that may have updated while you were away. then again it might be the modem you could call your isp for assistance.
it mainlly looks like it is your modem.
your wifi card looks fine.
best of luck.

Re: Wireless doesn't work on any distro
I feel your pain, so far I'm testing it with Ubuntu & Mint, no luck either, and if I see your post, I don't think I need to waste my time anymore with searching/downloading other distro's, which I was planning to do now. ](*,)
Re: Wireless doesn't work on any distro
No way. It was the password. After a week of suffering with the cable, today my papa came back from his trip to Colombia. Hi had never used GNU/Linux before, but looking at the network manager settings he discovered the password had the numbers switched of places. (the same numbers, but where they where not suposed to be)
Anyway, thank you for your help.
**Thank God it was only the password**
