Ubuntu's wifi works *great* at home. I have an 802.11b network here.
At school I also have an 802.11b. But it's kinda different as in it doesn't broadcast the SSID. It *is* DHCP and I have the SSID and password right.
However, it's set up such that I have to connect, *THEN* put in my ID and password for school on the first page of any browser (it automatically goes to that page) before I can access the internet.
Ubuntu doesn't even see the signal at all. I have the correct SSID and code in the Network Config.
I'm guessing Ubuntu doesn't realize that I have to put in my school ID and pass before accessing the internet? Is there a way around this? I don't really want to put XP back on for this, I've just gotten used to linux.
Thanks!
