Chip33az,

So now I am able to configure with iwconfig.   Only my link light is on, act light not  flashing at all ....

I did a network restart but nothing.

Is there a way to list all the wifi in my area?

I sure appreciate your help
Keith

Did you reboot?   The drivers from the restricted module have to load.

Ok I am using the linux-restricted-modules-generic also.  Installed and restarted the network.


ran iwconfig - returned "lo    no wireless extentions."

Researching now

You might try using synaptic and search for it.

Or you can try apt-cache search linux-restricted.

On my machine, it is linux-restricted-modules-generic, but I'm trying
out Feisty. YMMV.
