I have configured a RaLink wireless card to connecto to an 802.1x network. I connect by selecting the network, and the i give the credentials(username/password). How do i configure Debian to automatically connect to this network when a session begins?

How to enable wifi? I downloaded and installed Debian 6.00 and as I couldn't get online with my Tenda USB Wireless Adapter. I downloaded Debian 6.00 again, this time the CD Net Install version with Firmware included. However, the added firmware version of Debian does not find my wireless either. My wireless adopter is shown as Bus 001 Device 003: ID 148f:3072 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT3072 Wireless Adapter. There is a Network Icon in the Panel which when clicked shows "Create New Wireless Network". I have put in my ISP related network and my password and rebooted, but all I get is the message on my desktop:
"The Network Connection has been disconnected."
That isn't very polite, is it? Who has disconnected it and why remains a mystery to everyone except the culprit(s). I think I must have missed a basic step in the Wifi Enabling process. I checked the Use Permissions and everything is fine there, as User I have permissions to use modems and do networking and so forth. Also I should like to try "modprobe" but I see the package isn't in Synaptic Package Manager.
I am running Debian Squeeze on my net book ( ASUS 1000PE ) with an Atheros wireless nic. It has been running fine for months automatically connecting during boot to my hidden network but all of a sudden no dice.
If I use the Gnome network manager and "connect to a hidden network" and I am all set but when I am at the command prompt ( which is how I have it set to boot to) it is a few more steps. How can I get it to automatically load. I did not have any scripts set up before so I assume it is a service I need to turn back on that was turned off in error.
We are having an issue where our network connection is dropping on our server. Everything was working for about a month without issues then suddenly we experienced a network outage. Here is what I found in our logs. Rebooting the machine was the only way to have everything come up.

We have the same exact server, running the same exact debian version for over a year with no issues.
I have Debian 8.2 with KDE 4.14 and everything runs perfect, except for the internet connection. This problem happens randomly when I turn on my machine. Sometimes when the desktop loads, the connection is already settled.
But sometimes when the desktop loads, the wifi icon is still loading and keeps stuck at "setting network address". Since this problem happens randomly I really don't know what is happening here. My wifi chip is this:

This is the problem:
I installed Debian with non-free firmware because of this chip.

It used to connect in a snap of your finger automatically.
Now it does not.
Yes I have tried manual configuration, and double checking the password, ssid, protocols, and security type.
WPA2 personal is the security type.
There are maybe 4 different ways I know how to connect. The most annoying thing is when this box pops up saying to type in a password for the network connection.. and keeps popping up even when everything is right.
All I need is a reliable, easy, and automatic program to connect me to the internet, maybe even before I log into my system.

The situation: The office has a WiFi network on one DSL line, which is used for our VoIP call center, and a wired network for our internal network and the majority of web surfing/traffic . Part of the office must be temperature controlled/monitored - we have a rather nice digital thermometer which is WiFi enabled.I have a Debian Wheezy box with a WiFi card and ethernet connection
What I'm trying to accomplish:Connect wifi enabled thermometer to WiFi network so it can automatically send temp updates (currently I have to do it manually via USB)Have the Wheezy box accept the downloaded file then send it to a back up server in the wired network
Side things that may be useful : Prefer to use wired connection for internet and apt and suchWiFi connection will really just be used for connecting to the thermometer
This [URL] .... topic got me thinking that there might be a way to bring the two networks together, but I don't know if that will wreak havoc on things. I know, the Windows and Mac OS don't like having ethernet and wifi at the same time, might Linux be better for this?
v&n had this to offer in the prior thread [URL] .... which I'll be doing more research on.
I guess this should come under the title "why can't they leave well enough alone?" Today I had occasion to configure a couple of machines with static IP addresses for some testing. My 8.04 machine - no problem. Invoke network-admin, unlock (with sudo credentials), set the desired IP, netmask and gateway. It is good to go. On the 10.04 box I did the following:
Right clicked on the network icon in the notification area (nm-connection-editor) - I see Auto eth0 (last used, never). So what have I been using for connectivity since I installed 10.04???
I then select Auto eth0 and press [Edit]. Under the IPv4 Settings tab I change "Method" Manual and enter my settings. However, I cannot Apply the changes - the [Apply] button is grayed out. So I try the same thing via the menu System; Preferences; Network Connections - same problem the [Apply] button is grayed out. So then I create a desktop icon to "gksu nm-connection-editor". Now I can Apply my changes and perform my testing. Then it is time to set things back to DHCP. Should be simple.
I invoke "gksu nm-connection-editor" from my icon. Change Auto eth0 back to Method: Automatic (DHCP). Apply and the network icon appears to restart. But I have no Internet connectivity.
I can reach my router. I can reach my DSL modem. The connection to the Internet is still working on other PCs. In frustration I reboot the 10.04 box. I still cannot access the Internet. And the Auto eth0 interface shows never used.
I change Method: to Automatic (DHCP) Addresses only and enter my DNS servers for Opendns.org. Reboot and I am now able to connect to the Internet. Remove the DNS addresses and no connection. I did NOT have these specified in the network connection setup before changing to/from a static IP address.
While doing all this it seems that a new network connection "Wired network1" was created although it shows never used. I delete it, no change. I delete Auto eth0 and reboot. Now another new network connection "Auto Ethernet" appears and I can connect to the Internet without having the specify the DNS addresses in the network connections configuration. Interestingly this connection shows Last Used - now! Also after removing Auto eth0 and trying to Apply changes I am prompted for my password when I click the [Apply] button (starting the applet from the notifier icon, not my gksu launcher).
I was playing with my debian server when something went totally wrong while i was editing something on my network interface,i removed those crap that i wrote and left the network interface configuration as it was
Like for example after re-editing my network interface,it was like :
As i did a network restart, i get this error saying :
There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid with pid 2802 killed old client process, removed PID file.
What is this error and how can i fix it,because every time im re booting my server i lost my network config.
In Googling around it appears that the Network Manager used to have a nice simple (obvious, logical, straightforward, intuitive, easy-to-use... ... can you tell I'm a bit surprised that there's not a simple button to do this, it's pretty common functionality ) option in the IPv4 tab called "Shared to other computers" allowing you to share your network connection with any computers connected to yours... kind of like this:
[URL] ....
Professor Google seems to indicate that this may have existed in Debian at one point but, I don't see this option anymore. How do I get it back (or is there another gui way to do this without editing the /etc/network/interfaces file... if there's no other way to do this... that's fine but I'd prefer an easy method of enabling and disabling sharing)?
What I'm trying to do... I have a Beaglebone Black connected via IP over USB. When I'm ssh'ed into the BeagleBone, I want to be able to use aptitude install to grab new packages etc... and that kind of requires access to the outside world. Everything I've found so far seems to to require a modification to the interfaces file but since (according to the interfaces man page) the preferred method is to use the network manager if possible... I'm trying to avoid that.
* It should be noted that I'm running sid with the experimental 4.3 kernel so... maybe in doing so I've shot myself in the foot?
I'm having a bizarre problem where my network connection stops working randomly. At first I thought it was a DNS issue since Firefox simply chilled out on "Looking up [hostname]" until it timed out, but after further investigation (pinging IP's, "host" and "dig" being unable to reach servers) it became apparent that I couldn't even access the DNS servers i.e. the Wicked Connection of the East was most sincerely dead.
There are two strange things about this: one, there are no errors except "timeout". The network manager is happy, Firefox is happy until the lookup fails... Two, the failures only start *after* DHCP configuration. DHCP configuration never has any trouble sending or receiving packets. I'm going to try static IP and whatnot to see if that helps, more information later.
My Debian Jessie system started to bug after a separate /usr partition being full. After redimensioning and various packages reinstalls I fall on this:

I'm planning to use Debian as the OS for a firewall machine, which will sit between my internet connection and the rest of my computers. Now my network is all wired, no wireless whatsoever. I'm using the onboard the motherboards cat5 socket which seems to be using the VIA rhine driver and I'm also using a 3com 100MBps card.
I can list the machine spec if you want but it's nothing special, an old Athlon 64 rig with 1gb ram and an OEM motherboard, it all seems to work ok apart from the internet doesn't' seem to work. Lenny seems to detect both cards ok and I even used the net install CD and it managed to download everything using the 3com card.
The strange thing is when I'm in Lenny, I can't seem to connect. I can ping google, but when I try and view a webpage, the browser just sits there with a while screen... Could it be that using 2 network cards is confusing Debian? Right now I've only got the modem hooked up the the 3com card, and nothing connected to the onboard network card.
I am struggling to find out how to start the connection to my VPN on boot?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy network configuration is in a weird situation, that I always need to run dhclient manually each time after a network connection is established. When my computer connects to a router, sometimes it won't get a valid IP, and it uses an automatically generated fake Internet IP. In this situation, it won't connect to the Internet at all. Sometimes it get a valid local network IP, but still cannot connect to WAN, and could only connect to my router's address (both through ping and through router's management webpage). In both situation, it can be solved by a simple dhclient run.

I use Debian Jessie 8.2 and I am using a 3G connection using this modem => [URL] ....
The 3G connection works fine, except after 24 hours the connection drops and I cannot reconnect. If I reboot the computer, the connection will work again.
My guess is that my ISP gives me a new IP address after 24 hours and somehow my system cannot handle it.
How can I reconnect my 3G connection without rebooting?
I have already tried the following commands:
Code: Select allsudo service network-manager restart
Code: Select alldhclient -r eth0
dhclient eth0
Code: Select allsystemctl restart ModemManager

As you can see sept 22 at time 17:58 is when the computer started up. And roughly 24 hours after it failed to reconnect.

if the computer cannot ping a server, ie if the connection is lost.

I rebooted my vServer (Debian 8) and it doesn't came back up. Well, I used the rescue console on my server and the server seems to be running fine, except the network was broken.

I have been tol that for debugging purposes it is often useful to have a serial connection to a computer. I have some diskless workstations thats freezes during boot. I guess X has someting to do with this, but I'm not sure. Since the workstations are diskless, syslog is not stored locally so I cant se what is happening after the NiC stops working. When the worstation freezes, screen is going black, all lights on the keyboard turns on, lights on NiC is going black. It is not possible to ping the workstation.

I made a VPN tunnel to one of my client locations as a test, but could use rdesktop to get into the server. Then I realized I couldn't ping the server either. I also lost all ability to browse the web and everything while the VPN was up. Upon checking ifconfig as root, I saw that it created "ppp0" and hat it had pulled an IP from the client network, but all of my networking capabilities were gone. What gives? What is it that I am missing?
