    Does the WiFi light ever turn green or is it always orange? The connection I'm trying to connect to has a poor signal, so I can't tell.

    For what it's worth, mine doesn't flash either. :) Glad it doesn't. That's an annoyance I don't need.

    Cheers.

    maybe the driver that you are using. Mine flashes when it had the Atheros card, and does now with the Intel card installed also.

    lol :D im just curious, because i seem to have read it at the mandriva section.

    i've also read there that AAO has 2 lights for the wifi, they got both to work and that's when i've noticed that there are indeed 2 LEDs on both sides of the wifi sticker! :D

    now im just getting curious. lol. :D
