openSUSE USB Wireless Adapter

English Network/Internet

Hi,

I am trying to get my USB wireless adapter to connect to the internet.
It is working with my 2nd HD which has Windows 7.
Does any know how to configure this using openSUSE 13.2 ?

Thanks.

For USB hardware, you use

lsusb

and

usb-devices

With that information, someone should be able to assist further.

The wireless device is associated with the rt2800usb driver. It should be ready to configure. Are you using Network Manager or wicked to manage your network devices?

I posted the full output to be sure nothing was a miss.
I haven’t used either yet. I did look at net manager but didn’t get the adapter configured.
What do I need to do to configure it and the easiest and fastest way.
Are there any clear instructions for my configuration I could use ?

Thanks.
