I'm trying to learn Linux and have installed it on an old Dell laptop. All OK except for the wifi adaptor.
I got the Peppermint Linux in a disc with Linux User magazine; running the OS from the CD as a trial run the adaptor (a USB TP-LINK plug-in) worked straight off, found the local networks, connected to the router and broadband and ran the internet fine.
So then I installed said Peppermint Linux. The adaptor will now see the available networks but will not attach to my home hub.
Any helpful suggesti...
