Exclamation Re: Rhobuntu -Ubuntu on Rhodium with wifi

2) Now click on that connection monitor icon near the time applet. After you click refresh your router (and perhaps some other APs) should appear in the list. First click on Properties and scroll down till the very end. There you can choose your encryption and enter the password. Hit OK when done. After that you just have to click on Connect and WiFi should work. I hope.

The above blurb was copied directly from the Ubuntu on Rhodium thread at xda.

When I did this, I found that /etc/resolv.conf was not updated with the DNS information for my network so I updated it by hand. After doing so, I was able to start firefox and browse the web.

Edit: Oh, I see the lxterm steps were already posted to this thread. Well, yeah, you have to do those.
My SSID contains underscores in it and I can't figure out how to make them using the keyboard. If I try to scan without using the underscores in my SSID it won't work.

Any help would be appreciated!
