I am a very new user to Linux and Debian. I tried to use the Live version, but there is no internet connection. How do I connect to Wifi in Debian Live?
I use Asus laptop with Intel i7-3517U CPU. Other Linux distros work fine with wifi.
I did a netinstall earlier today (latest version, amd64) on my Dell XPS laptop and ended up with a minimal installation because I couldn't connect to the internet. Now I'm trying to get online without a desktop environment.
I have an Intel Centrino 1030, so I downloaded and installed the firmware [URL].... with a usb, then rebooted. My searches have turned up a lot of instructions involving a utility called iwconfig and wpasuppliant, but these are apparently not installed. I don't really know much about it, but my /etc/network/interfaces file looks rather empty:
Code: Select all# The loopback interface
 auto lo
 iface lo inet loopback
Shouldn't there be something like wlan0 there? The network card does show up with lspci
i just installed debian on one of my cvomputers that is more than 20 away from the wirless router router in the house and i can't get it to connect to thew internet via wifi i did this i went into system>administration>network and i sawmy wirless card and enabled it (a progress prompt came up for about 5 minutes) then i clicked properties and entered all of the information about my wirless router (i thought it would've scanned the area for any wirless ap) then i clicked okay and no dice, i went into the web browser and i get an error. what did i do wrong? how do i make it connect to the internet via wirless i have 2 wireless cards connected to this computer (sometimes linux doesn't kije the internal one so i connect the usb wirless card that i got)

In Windows you connect to the hotspot, and then any webpage that you attempt to connect to results in you being redirected to their login page.
Once you have put a username and password into their page, the internet works. I know the hostname and IP address of the login page so actually I can go straight there if necessary.
With Debian I have tried Network Manager, WICD and command line iwconfig and dhclient.
With Network Manager or WICD the connection just will not start. It seems to connect to the hotspot then immediately fall off before you can go to the login page.
With iwconfig and dhclient I get mode Managed not-associated. Sometime dhclient seems to return an IP address sometimes not. I'm not sure if it's because it already has an address in it's lease lifetime.
I think that dhclients sends a ping once the connection is up to verify the link? But this will not work until the page is logged into.
Windows "just works" even warning you that you need a login page and then loading it. How I can use this wifi service with Linux?
I bought a USB wireless adapter for my desktop. I finally got it to partially work using firmware-ralink as described [URL]sing network manager it will pick up my wireless network. However it will not connect to it.
The output of iwconfig is

I've configured WLAN with WPA2-PSK on my notebook EEE PC 1000H from Asus with Lenny.
I'd like to configure wireless interface in /etc/network/interfaces to switch from WPA2-PSK to a free open WiFi hotspot and back to the default WPA2-PSK if needed. code...
I just freshly installed Jessie on my Dell Inspiron 5110, I configured the network on the installer and had no problem. I can browse the web, get updates and install software.
But I can't find new networks. It just show "No Networks".

I have only had a few weeks worth of experience with linux, so I'm probably considered a newbie at this but I felt like giving it a shot. I just configured my new Toshiba Satellite A505-S6969 to jaunty. Most of the transition is going well but I'm stuck with a few issues, one of which is getting my wifi to work. Right now I'm working off of an ethernet cable.spci returns

I can connect to the internet through wifi, but I cannot connect to anything on my network. I have a printer and a NAS, so I would really like for this to work again. I have a dell laptop with a Broadcom card.

I've tried to read others stuff about people having this issue but it didn't make that much sense to me so could you maybe dumb down the computer language a tad? I don't know if I should or not as well but, I want to wait to install ubuntu till I have WiFi so I can update it while I install it, is that a good idea? But my computer is a HP Pavilion g6 if that matters.

I can connect to my router perfectly fine on Vista and I could connect to my friends router while I was in Ubuntu, but I can't connect to my router while on Ubuntu. I've been entering the same code that will work when I'm in Vista, but it wont work while in Ubuntu.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just installed Ubuntu 10.04 in my laptop and I can't connect to WIFI. When I boot with Windows 7, the connection is fine. I think the problem is with the drivers so I decided to boot on Windows 7 and look for the driver for Ubuntu. Problem is, I do not know what driver do I download. Here's an image of my Device Manager in Windows 7.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHaving played around with ubuntu a fair bit I decided to breathe life into an old thinkpad with a pcmcia wireless card, by following the minimal install instructions and using lxde window manager etc.. Everything works fine apart from the fact that I cannot connect wirelessly. The card picks up and lists connections but whenever I have clicked on a connection the dail spins and then it gives up.I installed network-manager and managed to get nm-applet appearing in the sysTray otherwise I would not even have known there was wireless connections there.
I was thinking there maybe some conflict with another network manager, does this sound likely?
Okay, I know there's been plenty of issues with this (and the erractic pad, but I'll figure that one out later)...but I seriously cannot for the life of me figure this out.
I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu, so please be gentle! I downloaded Unbuntu a few nights ago and everything's fine except for not being able to connect to wifi. Now, I understand that I have to connect using an ethernet to fix the issue, but when I do (even after restarting my netbook and restarting my wifi), it STILL won't connect to the internet to download what I need to fix my wifi.
I'm leaving for Prague tomorrow and really only have tonight to really get this down. I have a mini mouse for now so all I need to focus on is this internet fail. If you're willing to walk me through it step by step (remember, I don't know coding or much indepth programing).
I'm having an issue recently with Ubuntu 10.04 x64. Connecting to my wifi is not working. I believe it is some kind of issue with the router. On Windows 7 the only way that I could connect to the net was by copying the network profile to a usb flashdrive from another computer and loading it mine. The wireless signal just keeps attempting to connect.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a long-time Ubuntu user, and setting up my connection was as easy as putting in my WEP key, and that was it!
I installed Kubuntu 11.04, and it's really difficult. I located my wireless network, and after putting in my WEP key, it just says " Setting Network Address", while prompting me to re-enter my WEP/Hex key. After repeatedly entering the password, I get a red circle/slash icon in lieu of the network icon.
I have Ubuntu 10.04 on my EeePC 1000H. I don't use this computer often but it has always worked before... I suspect an update did this to me. I've recently swapped wireless routers but all my other machines have been able to connect to the new router. I can see the SSID and the signal strength is high but when I try to connect to it, it just attempts for a long time then asks me for my password again. I am currently connected to wired network.
Code:

pan0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
I installed Ubuntu 11.04 yesterday and my wireless didn't work so I searched a little and found a way to make it work; Uninstalled bcmwl-kernel-source and installed firmware-b43-lpphy-installer and b43-fwcutter. And it worked. But today I accidentally pressed the "turn off wireless" button on my laptop. I obviously pressed it again and thought it would work but it doesn't. Now I find networks and stuff but I can't connect to them. It tries for awhile and then asks me to enter the password which I do (it is correct) and then it tries to connect for a few minutes again and then it asks me for the password again.

I tried to connect to a WIFI require WEP key. I make the WEP key myself. I wrote it down on a piece of paper myself. My PSP can connect to the network, my XP can connect to the network. But same machine, my Fedora 11 can not connect to the network. As long as I tried to connect to the network, network manager just keep asking me for the WEP key. I put in the WEP key and tired out every option the network manage offer(WEP40/128bit, share key, etc),
