| 739390 | 2009-01-16 13:53:00 | I'm new to the forums and have recently installed Kubuntu on my Laptop. I'm trying to set up a wireless connection to the internet so i can get drivers etc. but i don't know how to retrieve the numbers and whatnot that Kubuntu needs. I tried the "ipconfig" command in cmd.exe but none of the numbers seem applicable. Is there any way to import an existing wireless connection from Vista to Kubuntu? BTW i installed Kubuntu using the "Install alongside Windows" Option. Thanks in advance for any help. |

It will probably be the same IP as when you are using windows then if it's the same machine witha dual boot | gary67 (56) | ||
