WIRELESS SETUP AND MISSING SMPPPD

English Network/Internet
1

First off, I am a noob.

I have just completed the installation of 11.2 on a older HP Pavillon dv5115nr. Finally got everything working except for the Broadcom wireless. I have updated the firmware and I can see the AP. I have been using yast to configure the wlan device but one of the last steps it trys to perform is install smpppd. Even when hooked up via eth0 it can’t find this program. I need some experienced help.

If you can connect via wired connection. Update the system first.

Switch on the networkmanager mode in Yast (that means, switch off the traditional ifup/ifdown mode). Click on the knetworkmanager icon in the system tray and configure your wireless there.
