I looked up <<MN-7100 linux>> on google.com to try to find out what chipset your wireless adapter uses in order to be able to help you, but my search got no results. Open up a terminal window and type <<lsusb>> with your wirless adapter plugged into your usb port. <<lsusb>> should tell you the hardware details about anything plugged into any usb port attatched to your computer. Look for the listing about your wireless card and post it on here, and I'lll try to help you. If you type <<lsusb>> and you can't tell which listing is your wireless card, just post everything that <<lsusb>> outputs and maybe I will be able to tell which one it is. The way I generally get any hardware I buy working on linux is to do <<lspci>> or if it uses usb I do <<lsusb>> and then that tells me what chipset the hardware uses. Then I do a google search for that <<chipset linux>> and see where I can download a linux driver for it, and then I follow the instructions provided with the driver's source on how to install it. Anyway, the first step is to identify what chipset it uses, and your best bet in finding that out is to plug it in and type <<lsusb>> in a terminal window.
