Hi folks,

This is probably a bone question - sorry, if so.

I have installed Trisquel 6.0.1 freshly and would like to connect to my wifi network. When I try to enter the wifi password, I input all the characters but "Connect" remains greyed out.

I have tried going into "edit connection" and trying various types of wifi security, none of which work.

Any ideas, please?

Regards,

Hugh

Run "lspci" in a terminal. Post the output here.

Will do - but just to check - my wifi adaptor is USB, is the output of lspci or lsusb needed?

OK, then do lsusb.

Thanks a lot for your help. I've decided to go back to Ubuntu. I'm sorry to be so flaky.

Regards
