Re: [orca-list] getting to wireless networks



How did you remove network manager?

A friend clames when you install wicd it'll remove manager automatically.

Hello,
the icon should be somewhere on the gnome panel. You can cycle between panels and desktop using ctrl-alt-tab. But I personally don't like gnome network manager and removed it. I installed wicd. You have to install wicd - it is a deamon and then wicd-gtk, that's the gtk interface. It is much better network manager in my opinion. You have similar options like in windows and can set multiple profiles for ethernet connections, etc.

Hi,
In Ubuntu, when I plug in my wireless card, a message pops up to tell me
that wireless networks are in range.
No doubt one of them is mine, and I want to access the wireless networks, so I can enter the key to my router, but I don't know how to get to this list
of networks.
I have made some wireless network connections in "network tools", but they never connect, and that is why I want to connect to one of them in the list.
It is like a balloon that comes up and tells me that there are wireless
networks, so I suspect that there is a panel of these sort of things to get
to.
Thanks for suggestions.

Glenn
