Hi Wayne
I'm still having lots of wifi and 3G card related problems with my Lenovo T520 and Linux Mint 13 (I though it was 12, it was 13).
Nice laptop, I have the W510 which is a slightly older but very similar chassis.
Yeah, thanks. Lenovo/IBM seam to get a bad press, but I've had a T42 in the past and my T60 is still going strong (5 years old) but a bit slow. They're solid and performant. I don't know what more you can ask for!
As Jude says given this model comes with various wifi options we need to know exactly what wifi card is fitted.
Yes, I wish I'd looked into it more before I bought now (Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000).
If you run lspci and look for the wireless and 3G cards in there and send us the relevant lines.
Great! I will. I don't have the machine with me today (still using the T60 for the time being), but I'll send this information tonight.
Also running lsmod might be useful as it will tell us what modules you are currently using (some cards can work with several modules)
I'll do that too.
