Automatic wifi scanning

[Member jmasque1]

Hi,

As a linux fan, I always try to test the lightest general purpose desktop distro.
Coreplus is very lightweight, however, it is not good for every day use.
So there is Antix and Trisquel. The two distros have a common problem with wifi.
It is not already functional. The scanning and listing of wifi networks is not automatic through the desktop bar.

So when I install it, I can’t have access to internet because I have no wired internet, only wifi!
This is a basic feature every distro should have.

I would realy like to see Antix or Trisquel as my daily driver. It is not there yet!

Thank you

If your wifi device is broadcom, you will have to unblacklist the respective driver (Control centre > Maintenance > Network Assistant, Linux drivers).
