Hello,
I have a new USB wifi device, but i am unable to make it to work. My level with linux is not very high, so forgive me for a probably foolish question.
I have followed the next tutorial until the step 4: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthrea...should-do-next
(And tried other pages also, without any better result)
But, when I use iwconfig, there is not any wireless device:
What should I do? Any step that i miss?
I have OpenSuse 13.1 installed with KDE.
If you require any other information for this question, please ask me.
Thanks you very much for any help.
Adrian M.
