doing a grep will not show adjacent lines that have errors on them.

 

you need to use the less or more commands and search for those same things and read the lines before and after, to see if there are any errors.

 

keep searching for the next occurrence, until you reach the end of file

Need to make sure the system sees it as a usable network device.  Do: 

 

iwconfig  ## verifies if the system sees it as a proper 802.11 device, and/or ap association

ip link  ## sees the nic as a real interface

ip addr  ## shows ip layer data, if it has an address

cat /var/log/syslog | grep NetworkManager  ## verfies if network-manager is trying to do anything with it

 

Also, does the systray applet show the network scanning for any wifi devices?  You should see *some* ssid's being found.

or more as it is being detected just not transmitting data. what should I do?

lspci sees SOMETHING at least. It says 

03:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT5362 PCI 802.11n Wireless Network Adapter

 

so it is detected.

 

The card in the other computer is almost identical It is pci-e wile the one not being detected is a pci card.

Look at the pci devices with lspci, grep for network devices:

You should see a like device there, your new card.  If it's not being detected properly, search dmesg output looking for an unknown device, might be a firmware thing or something.  Dmesg should at least tell you what pci-id, vendor, or model of chip to then google why that doesn't load under your os.

I got two wireless cards (netis wf2118) for two computers. both computers have mint. One card is pci the other pci-e. the pci-e card works great. the pci not so much. the green connectivity light on the pci card is happily a solid green. Any ideas on how to get it to work?....

I just googled it and the one hit I got said he had a dead card. How can I tell if it is dead?
