SliTaz SliTaz Forum archive

This forum is now a read-only archive

The SliTaz community has moved to Maille, a forum made for SliTaz.

We looked hard for a replacement for this aging forum, including a move from bbPress to FluxBB last June. But spam bots now get through sign-up even with mail confirmation, and these forum engines are barely maintained anymore. So we wrote a forum in the SliTaz spirit: small, fast, no JavaScript, works on old machines and in text browsers. Everything here stays readable.

Wireless works, but can't connect if no encryption

Hi

taz is a trusty little system that saved me quite a few times, so when a neighbour came with a clunky old laptop that lags on XP and is filled with malware, I set it up with SliTaz.

I've managed to set up wireless, and managed to connect to a WPA network I shared over my laptop, but I can't seem to figure out why it won't connect to his own network with no password (encryption="off").

The network works fine, it's the network I shared through my laptop, but taz can't connect to it.

I've looked through the forums, googled for the issue in general (using "linux" keyword), but have found nothing. I'm probably overlooking something but can't figure out what.

Help please?

Follow the directions to downgrade to one of the older versions of slitaz-boot-scripts which are attached to the thread.
