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.

Wifi Problem

I am using Slitaz 4.0. I am facing problem in using Wifi. I have a Wifi connection with WEP password. Whenever I Double click my connection in Wifi Configuration instead of connecting the window simply closes. I have also tried connecting through Slitaz Panel but I does gain success.

P.S. The Wifi Dialog is showing all the wifi networks but not getting connected to then.

Re: Wifi Problem

Wifibox crashing may be related to WEP which is what this user has in common.

TheBen96 post #6 in this thread: http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/slitaz-wireless-problem#post-8679

Open terminal and start wifibox as regular user:

wifibox

Post any error messages when it crashes.

Turn off WEP security on your wireless router. (disconnect router from the cablemodem)

Will wifibox connect you to the router without crashing with WEP off.

Ping the routers gateway ip to verify your connected.

You can connect wifi in terminal without wifibox.
