    During the installation I used a lan connection. But now I want to use my wifi Dongle (Logilink WL0086A).
    I have read through all the threats relating to wifi problems, but I don’t know where to start.

    What I did:
    ifconfig: recognizes my wifi-adapter
    iwconfig shows:
    wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:off/any
    Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=20 dBm
    Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
    Encryption key:off
    Power Management:on

    And these are the entries in /etc/network:

    # Network configuration

    NETWORK_BACKEND=”connman”

    NETWORK=”WLAN”

    IFACE=”wlan0″

    ADDRESS=”192.168.1.111″

    GATEWAY=”192.168.1.1″

    DNS_SERVER=”192.168.1.1″

    SSID=”gfes-34efs”

    HIDDEN=””

    SECURITY=”PSK”

    PASSPHRASE=”zrt+5434gt-746s”

    TIMESERVERS=”0.geexbox.pool.ntp.org 1.geexbox.pool.ntp.org 2.geexbox.pool.ntp.org 3.geexbox.pool.ntp.org”

    TELNET_SERVER=”true”
    FTP_SERVER=”true”
    HTTP_SERVER=”false”
    SAMBA_SERVER=”true”

    ZEROCONF=”true”

    WAIT_FOR_SLOW_DEVICE=”true”

    dmesg has no entry relating to wlan.

    And now?
    Any Idea what to do next ?

    Additionally I tried “iwlist scanning”.
    There I could see my network.

    The comments were only erased in the post to display the content more clearly.
    I added the netmask, but that did not solve the problem.
    No connection to my router.
