i just installed linux mint on my thinkpad laptop & discovered I have no internet unless I plug in the cable.   I also have win7 on it & it will work wireless, no cable.   Anyone know the routine...

    using mint 17.3 cinnamon.

    it started working.

    i think it takes a bit longer to establish conn than cable.

You don't happen to use Linux Mint DE, do you?

Since that mint distro is based from debian edition and not ubuntu which might be the case of difference.
