  • Try Lubuntu 32 bits. –  Jun 21 '17 at 14:47

    Perhaps you want to know why I advise Lubuntu? Well, your system has very little RAM, so I think Lubuntu 32 bits (x86) is the obvious choice. For more info, see: http://lubuntu.net. –  Jun 21 '17 at 14:56
  • That Celeron M (400 MHz bus) processor might lack the PAE flag, but still have PAE capability. You may need to boot with the boot option `forcepae`. See this link, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/AdvancedMethods#Pentium_M_and_Celeron_M – sudodus Jun 21 '17 at 16:02
  • Does this answer your question?

  • Please raise another question for that issue. Be sure to add the output of `lshw -class network`, showing details about the wireless component. I will not pick up on this, I have too little experience with wifi issues, as mine never failed. –  Jun 27 '17 at 15:58
