Ubuntu Networking :: 10.04: Wireless Functions But Ethernet Doesn't
Dec 14, 2010
My wireless works flawlessly (aside from my generally crappy signal ahaha), but when I decided to do a minimal Ubuntu live install on my netbook [Asus Eee 1005PE] (I tried both 10.04 and 10.10 with the same results), it wouldn't pick up my ethernet.
I decided just to load up my existing OS (Ubuntu 10.04 32-Bit) and got the same thing.
The wireless, as stated before, works without a problem, and it's weird, because the wireless manager says that knows the ethernet connection is there, but it won't connect to it...
[Edit: I did play around with different combinations in the BIOS (ie: lan enabled, wlan disabled, ect...)

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a new acer emachine e525. All is fine except that now I cannot switch the wireless on as the button above the keyboard no longer functions. Can anyone tell me what I can do to fix this as wireless is obviously vital in a laptop. BTW the wireless waqs working fine while the machine had Vista on it.

I wanted to test 10.04 and downloaded Wubi to do so. Normal setup, it automatically picked the 64-bit version. After booting into Wubi, installing my ATI drivers and restarting it did no longer connect to my ethernet. A few reboots didn't help so I went back to Windows for troubleshooting.
However now Windows doesn't connect to the ethernet either. It's plain dead, Windows doesn't find any connections and the modem doesn't light the Ethernet cable LED. The modem itself works fine with wireless devices. I have now tried everything including uninstalling Ubuntu, system restore, driver rollback, driver update, BIOS default settings, a different cable, a different modem etc.
This is a 64-bit specific issue because I tested the 32-bit version of Wubi 10.04 a few months ago without problems.
Windows 7 x64
Wubi 10.04 x64
Gigabyte P55-UD3 with onboard Realtek RTL8111D LAN.
I'd like to get out of this without Ubuntu effectively having broken my hardware and my trust in it.

I have installed Ubuntu 11.04 using Wubi through Windows 7. It seems to be working but it will not connect to my wired internet connection. It tells me there is no wired connection, when there is. I used sysinfo and its not showing any network adapter or controller. I have a board with nvidia nforce go 430, could it be a driver issue. It works fine in windows though. Tried using a wireless adapter and all is working. But why doesn't the wired ethernet connection work.

I've got Puppy Linux on a USB key, and yesterday, while I was on the internet with it, it hanged. I didn't know what to do, and I rebooted from the button (I now know what to do ). The problem is that, after rebooting, Puppy doesn't recognise the router. I've tried to apply the drivers that are on Puppy, but there aren't any compatible.
My router is a Xavi 7968 and my Network Card is:
NIC Fast Ethernet PCI Familia RTL 8139 from Realtek
(On Realtek's website, there isn't any driver linux-compatible)

I have been using Ubuntu for quite a while now (~3 years.) I recently installed 10.10 on an HP Mini 1000. The installation went fine, but now I am puzzling over how to connect to the internet. When I plug an ethernet cable into the netbook, the port light lights up, but the system does absolutely nothing. Under the connections menu on the top panel, it just says disconnected. Also, the wireless connection section states that the device is not ready because firmware is not installed. Most solutions I see for problems of this kind are to download the drivers, but I cannot do that because neither connection works.

i'm a beginner with ubuntu and i installed 11.04 yesterday (so not yet familiar with the new desktop configuration). Also, I have the french version so i'll do my best to translate the terms in english. I have a major problem: i can't connect to internet by ethernet cable or by wireless. The network icon is always empty. It doesn't detect the ethernet cable and the wireless networks around. I've tried different things i found on forums. I'v reinstalled the b43 package and rebooted. At the beginning i was only having problem with the wireless; i could connect via ethernet. But on one forum, a dude suggested the command

I've recently bought a recycled computer for my office. The plan was to get an old cheap computer and use it to write LaTex documents but nothing else. However, I can't seem to get the thing to connect to the internet. I'm on a University network which has a funny setup but I don't think that's the problem.So here's the deal. I have tried this with 9.04, 10.04 and 10.10 and it hasn't worked. The computer recognizes the ethernet cable. If I issue the command "sudo mii-tool eth0" and get back "eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok". However, click on the networking logo on the top right, and click auto eth0, it tries to connect for about 30 seconds, then gives up. Unfortunately I'm pretty clueless when it comes to networking so I have no idea what to do to try to fix this.

I just upgraded to 10.04. I had wireless connection for 1 day and now nothing. No ethernet connection either. I CAN use both wireless and ethernet using my machine on Windows.....so the connection stuff does work. Here's the output of of the commands I got from the "sticky". I can't display the output as this forum puts it all together as one continuous sentence with no line break!

I have a Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4030 running on Ubuntu 10.04. When I plug an ethernet cable into the ethernet port, simply nothing happens, and when I try to connect to my wireless network, it connects but there is no actual internet available. I'm sure the wireless works as I'm on an older model Toshiba Satellite and it connects fine (running Ubuntu 10.04 as well.) I tried to follow the procedure in the stickied thread, so when I type in these commands, here's what shows up:
Lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] RS780 Host Bridge Alternate
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems Device 9602

I have a brand new ASUS EEE PC 900HA with Ubuntu 9.10 installed on it. The wireless hasn't worked yet but the ethernet is fine. I've been browsing the forums for hours to find a fix but now I've installed/queried/removed so many things I'm totally confused.
lspci -v gives me this

have used f14 since it came out with no problems, little niggles and whatnot have been sorted by reading these forums and googling but I'm now out of my depth.problems started when I installed f15 from disc and no ethernet or wireless was useable. Inserting wire leads to it announcing it's unplugged again a few mins later and trying to connect wireless never resolves.I thought it was a quirk and would go back to f14 for a few weeks but after re-installing that was now the same. So I tried live discs of crunchbang and debian6 -same. However puppy linux sees the ethernet fine.So my question is how do I enable ethernet and/or wireless in f15 (installed again after checking with puppy)?

I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my HP dv6500, and neither the wireless won't work. I don't see any drivers under System >> Administration >> Hardware Drivers, and I can't connect it to the internet any other way when I'm running Ubuntu. (I still have Vista as a dual-boot, and it works fine there). (Sorry about the title - the ethernet DOES actually work, but I can't seem to change the title of the post).

I'm trying to share my ethernet via my wireless card. It doesn't work. Here is some info:
lspci

05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
lsmod
b43, mac80211, cfg80211, ssb
I've tried everything listed in these forums but every time I run
sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode master
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
I tried the STA drivers and get the same thing except the kernel module loaded is wl instead of b43. Is it even possible to set this card to master mode? I can't find jack on the net.

I have a Dell Studio 1501 Laptop and I want to bridge the wireless with the ethernet port so I can hook my xbox360 to my laptop.
I've spent the last 2 hours trying different techniques but nothing is working.
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 so the last thing I tried was going into the network manager, clicking on wired, editing the ethernet port and allowing it to share. This did nothing.
I tried to share the connect with firestarter but that did not work either.

I tried to setup a connection as below but face some problem (probably route table setting incorrect). Hope if anyone could shed the light.Basically, I have a PC1 (.1) and PC2 (.130) connected via a PC router. PC router has 2 interfaces: wireless (.2) and ethernet (.129). PC1 connects to PC router via LAN cable/wireless interface, while PC2 connects to PC router via cable. This settings try to simulate 1 wireless connection along the path (and because PC2 is too old to support wireless interface, we need a PC router). These interfaces are all under same 172.16.130.x subnet.

I am running Ubuntu 10.10
I am using an Intel WiFi Link 4965AGN built in adapter.
When I was prompted for a system-update I clicked Update and apparently something failed an only a partial-update happened. Now my wireless/Ethernet connections do not work. I tried enabling all Network Adapters but that option is no longer available in the "Preference/Administration" tab.
Note: I cannot access the internet at all on that partition so I can't download any updates from repositories.

I tried to setup sharing to connect Ethernet and wireless. I want Ethernet connected to desktop A, and wireless connected to another laptop(B), with my laptop acting as an AP. I set the network settings in Firestarter: Internet for wireless, local network for Ethernet. I want to share Internet from laptop B over the network. Internet won't work from my laptop since it seems to use the wrong interface.(Since the desktop is sharing Internet, although not on Internet usually when connected via Ethernet. And of course DNS/Gateway IPs aren't set for wlan0 since it's acting as an AP.) SMB wouldn't work for desktop A and laptop B: laptop B could detect desktop, but reports error "Path not found".

I'm been wanting to try Ubuntu for a while now, and when my mom's netbook started to get insanely slow with WinXP, I tried the Netbook Remix on a USB stick. I LOVE it, except I am unable to get the wireless working, which is the only thing stopping me right now from a full install.
I believe my problem is that I need to activate the two drivers "Broadcom B43 wireless driver" and "Broadcom STA wireless driver" which appear as unactivated when I go into the hardware drivers admin tools. Unfortunately this netbook (HP Mini Netbook FW376UA) does not have an Ethernet port, so I can't just temporarily hard wire it to activate these drivers.
So my main questions are: 1) How can I activate those drivers without an internet connection?, and 2) Do you think that activating these drivers is indeed the answer to getting the wireless working?
The details:
Machine: HP Mini Netbook FW376UA
Network Controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g
Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook

I absolutely love Lubuntu on VirtualBox. I installed it to my Compaq Mini CQ-10 without issue. However, there are no drivers for the Wireless or the NIC. Ok, so I go to Broadcom and download the drivers. But, when I try to install with the Makefile, Terminal tells me that make is not installed! Now, how do I install my drivers without make?

I'm running on 11.04 on my Dell Inspiron 1764, and so far haven't been able to achieve internet access through either a direct wired connection or wireless.
Wireless network controller: Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)
Ethernet controller: Realtek RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)
Fixes I've tried so far:
Wired - Attempted to install the r8168 driver and remove the r8169 driver as is done in this thread:

Wireless - managed a fleeting wired connection yesterday, during which time I installed the Broadcom STA driver through Additional Drivers.
Also attempted to install the firmware-b43-lpphy-installer, following these instructions:

but to no avail (under Synaptic Package Manager, the firmware-b43-lpphy-installer still remains unchecked after I install it through terminal)

I'm running Debian Lenny 5.04, I switched from Ubuntu 'cause it was dissapointing me, there are lots of functions and gadgets but they just don't work and I can see it's fun thing to spend all your time fixing your computer IF you have no responsibilities at all.
For me on the other hand, I just want a system that works, doesn't look ancient and does not have it's head up it's ass. That used to be Debian, since installing Lenny however I noticed a couple of things that seem to have changed in the GUI. For instance, is there ANY STRAIGHTFORWARD way to install the REGULAR firefox with a REGULAR adobe flash player? And by straightforward I mean, using the systems strongpoint and installing it via a .deb-package.
This is really starting to piss me off, everytime I try following some idiot's tutorial on how to accomplish this and everytime it makes such a goddamn mess I can't seem to get it back to where I started and the system becomes really ubuntu-like ( instable). I just want a Firefox with working flash, that shouldn't be a problem anno 2010 right?

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505, which has the Dell Wireless 1505 (Broadcom) card. To run the card, I installed the Broadcom STA wireless driver, which seems to activate the wireless card OK. The problem is that once I installed that driver my onboard Ethernet card was deactivated (and yes, it is enabled in BIOS). I had to remove the wireless driver to get the Ethernet back. Does anyone have ideas? I haven't found this problem listed elsewhere. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 with no other problems.

I'm a new user of Ubuntu, so i'm not that familiar with this OS. My wireless network is detected but when I'm entering my 128 bits WEP key, it doesn't connect at all. I have no clue where to start troubleshooting.
Here's some of my specs if that's of any help:
Computer is a Sony Vaio laptop model VGN-SZ370P
My wireless card is from Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB UHCI Controller
The ethernet cable connection used to work before, but I fooled around with some commands and now seems to be disabled...
