    Hi Y'all!

    I downloaded Mint 16 XFCE today for my Dell Vostro 1500. I already had Mint 14(but cinnamon) and Xubuntu 12 on dual boot but because I wanted Xfce for better performance on mint ,and preferred mint over Xubuntu I installed Mint 16 over Xubuntu. Unfortunately my ethernet and Wifi are not working right after installation. I know what the issue is with the Wifi but to resolve it I need the internet. I checked if this was a router problem but it isnt as the ethernet connection works fine on Mint 14. Could you please help me diagnose and resolve it? I am a newbie when it comes to anything advanced on linux.

    Thanks!
