    Hi Folks,

    I am a newbe to the site, having trouble with AAO Model ZG5 with Unbuntu sotware.

    I have been away for a week, turned on my AAO and tried to connect to wireless internet. The Wifi switch is on, the light comes on then goes off then comes on again-----but never connects to wireless router.

    The AAO worked perfectly before I went away, before when I turned it on the system, it connected to router within seconds..

    Looking for solutions please

    Look forward to hearing from anyone out there

    Regards Brian Wales

    I used to have a similar problem and found that it had something to do with how Ubuntu handled passwords and the password for the wireless. It caused me so much headache that I switched to another distro and kept switching until they improved Linux Mint to the degree it is now and it works just fine just install and run on my AAO ZG5.
