No wifi on Linux Mint

[Retro6]

I've just installed Linux Mint to a laptop and I'm having issues trying to connect it to my wifi.

At the beginning of the installation I tried to connect to the wifi when prompted and it took forever and just hung so I restarted the installation again I chose not to connect to get Linux Mint to install. Now its installed I try to connect to my wifi and it wont connect?

I've put in the correct passkey but it just doesn't want to connect.

I heard good things about Linux Mint and did not expect to run into issues straight away.

I'm already thinking about ditching it for Ubuntu but before I do is there a way to fix the wifi connectivity issue in Linux Mint?

Ask on the Linux Mint forums, they will know how to sort it.

Nah I wont bother, I'm ditching it, its rubbish. Linux Mint has a sea of issues, I went with a wired connection and installed some apps then couldn't launch them. If this is what Linux Mint is going to work like I'll just go for a less problematic OS that actually works. Thanks for your reply tho I appreciate it.
