Akemi,
I appreciate it if you can help more after reading the information below.
As for the Network Manager, I didn't see it on the task bar at all in the first try.

August,
Did you see the Network Manager after re-installing the OS?  Did you use it?

Thanks,
Yonggang

Thanks, Akemi.

I am forwarding the email to my colleague, August Piazza.  He has been trying to help me with this issue for two days, and can provide more information about the computer.

August, could you please try the command and provide the output to Akemi?

You need to provide more info than saying "couldn't make it work" .

My guess is that you'd need the iwl3945 module. Is this loaded?

/sbin/lsmod | grep iwl

Are you using NetworkManager and is it configured correctly?
