ianorlinBalsaq: if you have two linux laptops and wifi works on both with fresh installs you may want brdige-utils02:12
ianorlinif you have a short ethernet patch cord and ports on both02:12
ianorlinthen you can connect on wifi and share the ethernet without needing to plug into back of router02:13
Balsaqhmmm never heard of this02:23
ianorlin!info bridge-utils02:24

ianorlinthing is there is a way for nm-applet to use it and share02:24
Balsaqi do have 2 linux laptops - the other one is running ubuntu but i noticed on that one the wirelss worked w/o me doing anything in fact i wasnt even hard wired to intrnet02:25
Balsaqand now i got this one to run wirelss too so im good02:25
Balsaqboth have ssd's now too02:25
ianorlinuntil next install02:26
Balsaqyeah but this in good till mid 2017 i think02:26
ianorlinyes02:26
Balsaqbut you are correct - next time i may have some new wireless challenge...i wish that issue would stop.02:27
ianorlinBalsaq: many linux user share that sentiment02:28
Balsaqi had to do it in terminal but using that method it really seems locked in im steady at 4 bars of 5 since i did it and my router is in the basement so not mad at all....doesnt waiver at all.02:29
