   Hi

   I am new to Slitaz.

   I installed Slitaz Rolling 64 bit core.

   All is fine except there is no list of available wifi connections as one would expect in new operating systems. e.g. when wifi-box command is given.

   I googled and tried this and that with no success. So here i am.

   uname -a
   linux slitaz 3.2.71-slitaz64 #2 smp sun jun 1w 10:43:56 cest 2016 x86_64 gnu/linux

   lspci -nn | grep Network
   04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation WiFi Link 5100 [8086:4232]

   Hi monkeykid

   SliTaz comes with LAN only; to activate wifi

   1. first get and install the firmware for your wifi card
      

        tazpkg -gi firmware-iwlwifi-5000

      (hope it is the good one...) :-|
   2. stop and restart network:
      

        /etc/init.d/network.sh restart

   3. then open tazpanel and configure wifi:
      TazPanel > Network > Wireless; you should see all the network SSIDs.
      Or you can configure it manually. See:
      • http://doc.slitaz.org/en:guides:wifi-easy
      • http://doc.slitaz.org/en:guides:wifi-hard

   Note you cannot have LAN and WLAN together in SliTaz.
