Hi,
This is my first post in this forum. I made a fresh install of opensuse 13.1 kde in a hp laptop 2 weeks ago and still unable to connect wirelessly.
Can you help me, please?

This is my /sbin/ifconfig:

eno1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr B4:47:2C:43:44:A6

and my iwconfig:

lo no wireless extensions.

Please, tell me if i need to post some other information. I'm kinda newbie.
Thanks in advance!

I can't really help but 2 things someone will need to know:

1) in yast -> network devices -> network settings -> global settings, are you using "user controlled with network manager" or "traditional method with ifup"

2) what is:

Code: Select all

lspci |grep network

ok a 3rd:
3) in the system tray is there a network management icon (might be hidden so you should check the hidden icon icon) if there when you click on it do you see various wireless networks

Hi, Thanks for replying!
In yast i chose: NetworkManager controlled by user.
lspci |grep network --> i obtain nothing as answer

Yes, I do have an icon and shows my ethernet connection and my wifi and others.

I see that my system tries to connect ("configuring interface"... "waiting for authentication"...) without success.
Just a minute ago I went to NetworkManager and deleted my connection just to add it once more; restarted my machine and saw what is commonly happening: i get a wireless connection for few seconds and then switches off.

Can you suggest me something?
Thanks!

Please post the output from "dmesg".

Hi, again

My dmesg gives a very long output that repeats the information. I copied some lines that I hope that render the appropriate info:

Thanks!

Hi!
I upgrade my kernel following this post at opensuse forum:

http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/install-boot-login/493757-updating-13-1-use-kernel-3-12-a.html

and could, finally, connect to my network

now the uname -r command says:

Code: Select all

antonio@jazami:~$ uname -r
3.12.5-2.g3848a14-desktop

I Greatly appreciate your support and time

See you next post!

the link to the openSUSE forum is bad, you probably copied the displayed text when you should have right click "copy link"

OK!, i corrected the link.
Please, tell me if you cannot use it.
Cheers!

A kernel update was the correct fix in this case - the driver responsible for operating your wireless card was not able to work it correctly, based on that dmesg output. The kernel update will have fixed this.
