Networking :: Share Internet Through A Wireless Access Point?

Aug 8, 2010

I started using Arch just a few days ago. forward traffic to the Wireless access point I created on arch. i am using cable internet (ppp0) which I want to share via a usb wifi adapter running as a WAP. I followed the instructions in this link to enable the AP mode. Afterwards I followed the instructions provided in the Arch Wiki to forward the traffic but because of my inexperience I am still unable to connect to the internet. Here is the output of iptables -nvL :

Code:

Chain INPUT (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
77 31312 ACCEPT all -- lo * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0

Ubuntu :: Setting Up Internet Connection Through Wireless Access Point

Aug 16, 2010

I have successfully set up a cable internet connection in Ubuntu (created a new DSL connection by typing login and password and connected the cable - it worked). But I have no idea how I can set up a wireless internet connection.I have a wireless access point TL-WA501G, laptop and a cable internet connection with fixed IP address.My laptop can see the wireless access point. But I really do not know how to make it all work and what to start from.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless: Can't Associate With Access Point In Kde, Wireless In Gnome Works Fine?

Apr 30, 2010

one of these "WiFi works in Gnome, not in KDE" threads, but I have been all over google and hundreds of threads across different sites and can't figure this one out.As mentioned, wireless is peachy in Gnome, unfortunately I like KDE and I'm more productive using it (when I have internet). Wired network works fine in KDE, and my network card

Ubuntu Networking :: Using Internet Via Access Point Of Phone Using Bluetooth?

Jul 31, 2010

I've a Nokia 2323 Classic which I want to use to access to the internet on my laptop.

A friend of mine with a Dell Inspiron 15 running Windows 7 could connect to the net by just pairing up and right clicking on my phone's icon in the devices menu and selecting connect to internet via access point.

I've an eMachines E725 which lacks bluetooth. To overcome this I used a dongle which was able to successfully pair up with my phone via the bluetooth menu in preferences.

So what next ? How do I use the phone to connect to the internet directly via access point ?

I noticed that I did not need any operator related settings to do so in windows 7 and the phone worked regardless of SIM card present so I assume it should work similarly in linux.

What is left is to ask the system to treat it as an internet access device and use it that way.

How do I do it ? I don't mind a commandline way but a GUI would be better because I'm not the only person using my laptop.

Ubuntu Networking :: Setting Up Wireless Access Point?

Jan 13, 2010

I have a Sonicwall access point, which I am able to set up through the interface, but after that I am unable to achieve a connection through my wireless card. I have a good understanding of everything involved, but really have no hands on experience when it comes to networking.

Code:

lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 735 Host (rev 01)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge (AGP)

[code]....

Also, I should have mentioned that @ the interface for the Sonicwall it said that "no DNS server had been specified", but I set it up for DHCP, and I thought my ISP is using PPPoE (which I also thought used DHCP).

Ubuntu Networking :: Help Setting Up Wireless Access Point

Nov 7, 2010

I'm trying to set up a wireless access point and router using Ubuntu 10.10. My machine has an Atheros AR5001X+ PCI card, and eth0 is connected to an ADSL modem.After literally days and days of going in circles, I'm hoping that somebody here can help get me on track.This sort of works, though I had to go through some other contortions to get the madwifi driver to finally compile on my machine.At this point, I can see and connect to the WAP, but nothing more. When I try "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart",

I also have a second problem, which is that I want to use WebMin to manage this server, but I cannot figure out how to get the ADSL client module configured -- RP-PPPoE version 3. It seems to expect to work with pppoe-start, pppoe-stop, and pppoe-status, but when I try to run pppoe-status it says "Link is down", even though my ppp connection is actually working.Is is possible to use the WebMin ADSL client module with Ubuntu? I spent a lot of time trying to get pppoe-start, stop, etc. working but it was a complete mess and never seemed to behave. Finally, I just put the ppp startup commands into the /etc/network/interfaces file and that worked, but now the pppoe-* commands no longer seem to function.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless - Will Not Connect To Any Access Point

Nov 30, 2010

I installed it alongside Win XP, using Wubi, and it seems I use Ubuntu 10.04.Everything worked out as expected, and my wired internet connection works like a dream.However:My wireless connection seem a little buggy.I can see all networks (except WPA2) so even if I want to fix the WPA2 problem, I'd rather just open my network for now.

So my network is now open, I see it in the NetworkManager list, and as i try to connect, the following happens:The wireless symbol start flashing. From here it keeps flashing, untill it gives up.I use RT2870 drivers, and D-Link DWA-140 USB wireless adapter.

It goes without saying I am a freshman regarding Linux, so if anyone knows what to do, and cares to take the time to tell me, please do tell me in a detailed manner.I do know the basics of the Terminal, and yes, I do know how to copy/paste commands I find linux way more satisfying than Windows so far ... And thanks in advance for giving away your time More info can be given upon request (You might have to explain how to find that specific info)

I have an Intel PRO 2200BG wireless card and can connect to my router when logging in via gdm (using Xubuntu.) No problems there, connection never drops, very reliable!

But I've since had the need to shutdown X and keep a simple terminal instance open but as soon as I stop gdm the connection to the router drops. Trying to connect via the terminal using wpa_supplicant has so far been unsuccessful.

I know for a fact I'm doing something wrong, just don't know what and would appreciate some help!

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Create A Virtual WiFi And Share Internet Access With Many Others?

There is a new feature in Windows 7 that make u able to create a virtual WiFi and share ur internet access with many others.

I'm trying to make my F10 Laptop a wireless Access point.

When I 'iwconfig wlan1 mode Master' I get:

wlan1 is a Netgear WG111v2 which worked as soon as I plugged it in after I installed F10.
I don't know is it not supported? What is? Is there a different driver I can put on that will work in master mode.

What should I do basically?

Fedora Networking :: RT2500 Wireless Access Point Not Showing Up

Jun 23, 2010

I'm new to Linux and I have a problem with the Wireless connection.I've already searched for this problem but found so many threads it was impossible to sort it out.I've just installed Fedora 13 (Live CD - Install to Hard Drive) and apparently it's kinda... "empty". But my problem is with the wireless connection. There is a free network provided by my city for all the citizens. It is Open (authentication) for all. The problem is I can't "see" the network in Feodra. In Windows 7 I can "see" it just fine with 3 bars signal strength. It is great for surfing and emails. It is not intended for heavy downloading.

Why can't I "See" this network? There is another weird thing. The neighbor above me has a Wireless access point closed of course but I get 44% signal strength in Fedora and Full bars in Windows. Does it have to do anything? Maybe the low signal of the free network is the problem and Fedora makes it disappear completely?

Ubuntu Networking :: Turning Computer Into Wireless Access Point

Sep 8, 2010

I am in a situation at the moment which means I am going to be without an ISp for a week or two, and I can't survive that long without the intenet!!! What's more, I have 8 computers that need to connect, though not necessarily at the same time, but certainly more than one at a time. Anyway, I came up with an idea to buy a Mobile Broadband Dongle, and then share the connection via my PC. Problem is, I don't know how I would go about setting my PC to be a Wireless Access Point/makeshift Wireless Router, and sharing the connection.

I'm trying to setup my ubuntu server as an access point but am running into some issues.

The server has an Atheros wireless card (AR5008 chipset) and I have used the following link to set it up in master mode using madwifi drivers: [URL]

I then used this link to set it upas an access point using hostapd. [URL]

But inspite of following the above steps, other wireless clients in my LAN are unable to see the ssid "Linuxmaster"

Although iwconfig shows that the card is in master mode.

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.04 Wireless Connection - Connect To The Access Point

Apr 26, 2011

10.04 in a couple of identical lenovo laptops (of friends) suddenly have stopped connecting successfully to wireless, coinciding approximately with a mains power socket fail at the modem router, now fixed. presumably the machines were trying to connect to the access point, which may or may not have been working, but themodem router was not. Now, internet connection and wireless access point is fixed ok and is back up, and i can connect wirelessly to the access point ok using an eeepc with 10.04.2 with no problem so the access point is working ok

the target laptop/s are still ok via wired ethernet, and can *also* connect to a neighbours open wireless (a british telecom so called fon network, it asks for an account password), and all local wireless networks can be seen normally, and the home access point ssid can also be seen ok. so the aptop wireless is connecting ok, but not to this particular access point now. maybe someting has got screwed up? it is wpa2 and when clicked, after a long-ish time, the authentication is requested, then given, correctly, and still not connecting, asks for authentication again etc etc. no local secure wallet is being used.

when upgrading these laptops for my friend some time ago from 9.04 i have a small recall that 10.04 had a odd thing with wireless authentication (?) bug? i have deleted the network connections gui listing for this ssid and restarted the laptop, still no joy.

Networking :: Add Wireless Access Point At Home Using Extra Router?

Nov 22, 2010

The garage in my house is a dead spot for my current wifi router.I can't get a signal there.Moving my router within the limits of my cabling doesn't fix it. But I have two other routers I'm no longer using.Is it possible to use one of them as a wireless access point to extend the range of my current router?If so, what is the general procedure for doing that? My main router is a Verizon Actiontec M424WR. My other unused routers are a D-Link and a Netgear, both of which have wireless capability. The Netgear had a superior range, as I recall.

Basically, I know my card is connected to something, because firefox can do a google search, but I'm not sure what network it is connected to, since there are a couple open networks in my apt complex. Is there a command to list the ssid? that I'm connect to? and, I'm new to all this so I'm not sure if ssid is the correct term. I have a consumer grade netgear wireless "router" that I bought from bestbuy which has a "passphrase".

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Connection Drops - Access Point Not Assigned

Aug 19, 2010

I have Ubuntu command line only installed on my HTPC (it is XBMC Live installation). Kernel is 2.6.31-16-generic. My wi-fi card is AW-NE770 from AzureWave (mini-pci on Zotac Atom motherboard). I have successfully configured wireless connection to my router. Unfortunately, after short period of time connection drops. When I restart /etc/network/interfaces all goes back to normal. When connection is dropped, iwconfig shows that access point is not assigned. I have already tried installing backport drivers, removing security on the network (WEP and WPA), assigning static IP or using DHCP. Nothing works. I know it is not the router or my internet because I can be at the same time on my laptop and that works fine.

Ubuntu Networking :: Using A Laptop As A Wireless Access Point For A Windows 7 Desktop

Mar 3, 2011

I have a windows 7 (64bit sadly) desktop computer with no wireless capability. Now before I go out and spend money on a wireless usb thing, I was wondering if I could use my laptop (Ibm think pad T60 running ubuntu 10.10 dual boot with crunch bang) As a wireless access-point and connect via Ethernet cable the laptop to the desktop (Probably through a modem?) so I can use the Internet for games on the desktop computer. (Games that wont work in wine, sigh). Just a note though, 64 bit windows 7 will NOT run anything.
