First (and most important things first, where is the Thank you button?Quote from: torreydale on January 29, 2017, 10:54:24 PMYou have an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG wireless adapter. Are there no options under the Menu, Settings, Install Drivers section?I have tried the alternate propriety "Processor microcode firmware for Intel CPU's". No happiness there either.
kriemer,I've web searched your adapter with Linux and/or Ubuntu. I see some complicated approaches, many not leading to solutions. In my mind, that's going down a rabbit hole. From my personal experience, it is a better use of your time to just invest $8-20 on a USB based wireless adapter that you know works with Linux. I'm not endorsing it, but something like this is what I'm talking about.
