did all your advices, but now it's worse...
when doing
ping 1.1.1.1 ---> network not reachable
ping salix.org ---> network not reachable
ping ddg.gg - --> network not rechable
but
ping archlinux.org -->packets transmitted, 0% loss
ping google.com -->packets transmitted........
.
think I'll forget about salix

Need to install these packages
Code: Select all
sudo slapt-get -i net-tools wireless_tools
But it is really strange, since you ping archlinux.org and google.com which means wifi is working cannot ping salixos.org

Wait, did you do a BASIC mode installation? Tools for wireless connections are only included in FULL mode.

to your information only
did a last try on another laptop, with a wifi card intel 3165
also took a greek mirror instead of the one from UK
same procedure and same issue
so it's not a reason of my hardware definitively
seems to be a bug in the salix OS
bye
