Hello orc_dragoon We'll need to know the type of network card in the netbook before we can even begin to guess. Code: lspci from the command prompt should tell us that. The make of the netbook might not go amiss either.

Hey guys, so I just did a fresh install of F12 and was wondering if there was a step by step guide on how to install the BCM4312 "driver" on F12. Since I'm dualbooting, I can access the internet via windows, so if there's anything I need to download please give me links too. Thanks so much, infernosoft

I use it over an OpenVPN connection to connect to clients machines. The one that came on the Fedora12 DVD has a box to tick on add connection tab to add to favourites but there does not seem to be anywhere to access favourites. There is an option export the connection you get a file save window with the directory greyed out and clicking save has no effect. May be I'm missing something. I like the fact that the KDE version is the same for...

Good to hear you are not using extra connection software. It sound like it may be a driver problem. Are the drivers for 32-bit and 64-bit F12 compiled from the same source? If not, you may want to try F12 32-bit, see how it goes. I myself am eager to exclusively use 64-bit F12, but I am having a few issues that makes 32-bit not just "good-enough" but easier and more usable for me, as a newbie to Linux. My Huawei e220 modem...

Hi Valente.ro The issue experienced on my end is a manual disconnect, and then trying a manual reconnect - not auto-reconnection.

What if the problem is in the NetworkManager in F12? supposing the kernel is...

Gents, twas the hosts file, thanks SOLVED

Tried Fedora12 Live CD (i686) on the laptop - same story :-( The modem is seen as a CD and remains so - I click "Eject" or "Safely Remove", it disappears, then 10 seconds later appears again as a CD.

actually, the best way would be to define a specific port that you want Transmission to use. then make sure you have that port forwarded in your router and also have the firewall configured to allow traffic through on that port. I don't particularly care for UPnP myself. I see it as a security hole. I don't like things that open holes up in my firewall and change router port forwarding without me specifically telling it to.

It might be worth trying F12, a live cd if you prefer, and see if it is recognised there. I understand new modem are being added.
