Google your problem first. Check the Wiki. Read the existing threads. It's okay to "hijack" an existing thread, yes! If your problem is not yet covered, open a new thread.

Due to the lack of crystal balls, attach the output of lspci -nnk if you encounter hardware problems.

Not yet. I use the manual method:

Code: Select all

sudo cat /etc/network/interfaces
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug wlp2s0
iface wlp2s0 inet dhcp
	wpa-psk SOMETHING
	wpa-ssid Home
#	wpa-psk SOMETHING_ELSE
#	wpa-ssid Work
and then brings the device up with "sudo ifup <device>" and "sudo service networking restart"... buuuut there are also following scripts that do more or less the same:

Those scripts are golden. Well, the one Bacon wrote and I edited certainly is, didn't try the other one :)
I don't move around anymore, but was really handy.

Thanks for this, bacon. I never use wifi or move my PC tower around, but most of my relatives and friends do. Bookmarked.
