: BT5 and wifi cards
: lucid April 06, 2012, 07:18:34 AM

I've looked around but can't find a clear answer so I decided to ask here. I have a realtek wifi card and before I start messing around I want to know if it's compatible with Backtrack 5. I have had problems with ubuntu 10.04 on broadcom and when i my own laptop with a different wifi card I thought my problems were solved. They were not. So I'm wondering if Realtek is another one of those cards that have to be difficult and not work with anything

i have the same problem on BackTrack 5 RC 1, but i use "wicd-client" to solve it. you can try  ;D

So you're saying you have a realtek? Do you have to get an Alfa card in order for backtrack to work?

i mean no, in my case my wlan card is detected but can`t be used. so i use the "wicd-client" syntax to my terminal to connecting wifi.
