Re: [BLUG] Xfinity, Ubuntu woes

Here's the output:

So just putting it in lock is fine, but suspend or reboot starts the fight to get connected.

You don't happen to know which wifi adapter your thinkpad has, do you? Some more specific details would help.

I believe putting 'lshw -C network' in a terminal (without quotes) should give you a list of the network bits in your laptop. Don't hold it against me if I'm wrong though, I don't have a linux box with me to try it out on.

Then a Xfinity support person "changed something" and it . . . sort of worked. That means it worked after fiddling with enable, disable, (I'm on Gnome classic). Actually, I don't know what I would do, but eventually it would work. Then I'd put it in suspend, come back . . . and it wouldn't work. Repeat fiddling, rebooting, etc., then it would work. Any ideas what I'm having probs with?
