Amm, is your SSID hidden? try to make it visible and then Try to reconect the second laptop after a reboot, also is the wireless adapter working? Try to unlock it with rfkill: (As Root in your terminal) 1.- sudo yum -y install rfkill 2.- rfkill list 3.- rfkill unblock all 4.- rfkill list Hope it gets solved. -- <-Manuel Escudero-> Linux User #509052 @GWave: jmlev...@googlewave.com @Blogger: http://www.blogxenode.tk/ (Xenode Systems Blog) PGP/GnuPG: DAE3 82E9 D68E 7AE4 ED31 1F8F 4AF4 D00C 50E7 ABC6
