Alright, I'm a new Linux user and can't be happier with how Linux Lite has breathed new life into my formerly unusably slow laptop...
EXCEPT, I can't get the wireless to show up.
After trying to find new drivers (I didn't) I've done a bit of snooping around here for solutions and ran rfkill and got the following:
0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
Which says to me that my Wireless LAN should be working, right? Yet when I click my internet connections, the wired option is the only one that appears.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
If it helps the output from inxi -n is:
Network: Card-1: Broadcom BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX driver: b44
IF: eth0 state: up speed: 100 Mbps duplex: full
mac: 00:16:d4:a8:c7:e5
Card-2: Broadcom BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller
driver: b43-pci-bridge
IF: N/A state: N/A mac: N/A
