Ubuntu Networking :: ASUS USB-N13 Fails To Communicate?
Dec 5, 2010
Chili555 where are you?
I am running Ubuntu Release 10.04 (lucid), Kernel Linux 2.6.32-26-generic-pae, GNOME 2.30.2.
I have installed the ASUS USB-N13 according to your advice in previous posts, specifically, in your advice to 828688 Ben.
The dongle seems to be operating as it should. The LED does its flashing at what appears to be the correct time. Wicd also looks correct. Networks are found with good signals shown. Everything looks correct. But when I attempt to connect, "validating authentication" runs for quite some time, and eventually results in a dialogue window stating the communication failed. The required WEP password is entered in the RT2870STA.dat file, and again in the wicd window.
I have entered as much detail in the RT2870STA.dat file as I dare, and believe it to be correct.
ndiswrapper is not installed. Network Manager is uninstalled. Only wicd remains.
I'm running a fresh install on an intel i7 system on an asus p6t deluxe v2 motherboard with the onboard NIC (Marvell Technology pci-e). I know the NIC is working as when I boot into the onboard OS that Asus provides (Asus Express Gate SSD)I have a working net connection.Booting up CentOS hangs at determining IP information for eth0 and eventually fails with the following error:PING xxx.170.30.1 from xxx.170.31.231 eth0: 56(84) bytes of data---xxx.170.30.1 ping statistics ---4 packets transmitted, o received, +3 errors, 100% packet loss, time 2999ms, pipe 3 failed.
I just assembled a new computer with Intel Core I3 processor and Asus P8H67 motherboard and 4 MB of memory. It has a 2TB Hitachi Deskstar Hard Drive and Asus DVD. I am trying to load Ubuntu 10.10 directly (without first loading Windows) without success.
I have tried 4 separate downloads of Ubuntu - 64 bit, 32 bit with Desktop and Alternative. I have changed a variety of parameters and various tricks suggested on other threads. The Desktop (32 and 64) versions get me to Busybox shell with message (Initramfs) Unable to find a medium using live file system. The Alternative version hangs with the messages: RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM image startgin at 0; No filesystem could mount root, tried ext3, ext2, ext4, fuseblk; Kernal panic - not syncing VHS; Unable to mount root fs on unkown block(1,0).
For parameters I think have tried them all (but not in all combinations). I tried exiting twice from BusyBox as suggested on forums but that just hangs the system. I also turn off the quiet and splash to try and see what is going on....but it is too complex and goes to fast for me to follow.
A final suggestion was that the P8H67 is too new for Ubuntu 10.10 and to try the new version 11 coming out...I am new to Linux and reluctant to try a Beta
I have been running Fedora 14 on my Asus 1101HA netbook for several months without real problems. This weekend I tried to install Fedora 15, but the install failed in two ways:
* The GUI login screen never appears. I'm able to log in using character mode, but that's all.
* The network hardware is not configured, even the wired connection. Hence, I'm unable to apply updates (which I hoped might fix the GUI problem). I tried manual configuration (which is hard to find instructions for these days), but it didn't work.
The output of ifconfig shows no eth0 device, but rather something called "em2":
I've attached the Xorg.0.log file and the output of dmesg and ifconfig.
I have two computers...Ubuntu server and Windows XP client. Both are connected to the internet using Ethernet. I have them connected directly using 1394 to increase speed of large transfers. The internet network and 1394 have different IP address scemes. Internet 192.168... 1394 10.0.0...
I am having problems getting the two computers to communicate with each other. I can ping the server's ip address and and it loops back. Same with the XP's IP address. I can't ping each other.
ifconfig shows my eth0 and eth1 connections are up. The eth1 Link Encap says UNSPEC.(Don't know if that means anything.)
I'm using Fedora 9 and has finished the DHCP for my eth2 and static on eth0. I would like to add a route so that the 192.168.22.x eth0 and 192.168.26.x eth2 can communicate to each others,.
I am testing with Suse Linux Enterprise Server 10 in a VMWare environment. I've installed two SLES10 servers, named sles1 and sles2. I can't get the two servers to communicate, even a simple ping won't work. The "Network Adapter" in VMWare is set to "bridged", a setting which has worked fine when installing WinXP in VMWare and connecting to the Internet.Even if I ping sles1 from sles1 (= "pinging myself"), I get the same error message.Only if I ping localhost, I get a proper ping result.What did I do wrong? Did I forget to configure something?
given my computer is in a network consisting of multiple subnetworks, i.e. there are groups of computers: {192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3 etc.}, {192.168.2.1, 192.168.2.2, 192.168.2.3 etc.},..., {192.168.254.1, 192.168.254.2, 192.168.254.3 etc.}. My computer is 192.168.1.1. So I can communicate with 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3 etc. To communicate with other people I have manually switch to the proper subnetwork and take a new ip, e.g. 192.168.2.1. My question is: Is there any way to be member of all groups and communicate simultaneously with ALL computers? And if not, is there a way to find out (without manually changing the ip address) if computers of other subnetworks are online, so one does not have to change the ip and then look for other computers in the new subnetwork?
I downloaded and installed a new copy of Fedora 11 last week onto a new computer (hereafter "proximate"). I also have a remote computer without a monitor running an outdated version of Red Hat Linux (hereafter "remote"). To manage the processes on remote graphically, I ssh from proximate into remote; this connection succeeds without incident in transmitting text (including commands) between the two computers; however, the command "gnome-session" returns: (gnome-session:15789): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
(The numbers apparently represent the process identifier and vary from instance to instance.) A similar warning (and no accompanying graphics) occurs whenever I attempt to start any graphical user interface from remote via ssh from proximate. The issue almost certainly lies with proximate; remote successfully communicated graphics to the ancient box that proximate replaces.
Interestingly, I cannot communicate via ssh from remote to proximate (within a secure shell from proximate to remote). If I execute /usr/sbin/sshd on proximate as root, then I can login, but even then I cannot execute any commands.
Consider the following output:
If I execute ssh -vvv proximate from remote to proximate, then I get a lengthy output that ultimately ends with "debug1: Exit status 254."
What must I do to communicate both text and graphics among my computers?
I am trying to set up an NIS client on a Fedora Core 12 64-bit system. The ypbind daemon is running via the /etc/init.d/ypbind script. However, whenever I run the ypwhich command, the following error message appears on-screen:
[code]...
The client has been configured so the domain is set, and the client will broadcast for the first available nis server. The client is on a subnet where there is one nis slave server, so it should bind to that server. One thought that came to mind was the fact the client in question is 64-bit, while the nis slave is 32-bit. Could that cause this problem?
One problem has led to another.. I had notebook version 9.10 and it worked OK. I Downloaded 10.04 onto USB and all seemed fine. After upgrade - disaster. I have as Asus Eee PC901.
1. I am in Italy and bought a TIM USB mobile broadband modem - Ubuntu can see the device but nothing happens except a bizzare message with no information at all 'Unable to Open Archive'. I have no idea what that meant nor what I should do to resolve whatever it is, so I went back to my older USB modem which worked under 9.10 - Now even that device does nothing.
2. as a result, Ubuntu software centre does not work, Synaptic Package manager is the same; also update manager.
3. Limited communications are available via the university wireless network. That network requires me to work through their own proxy;port address (with username and password) which I have set up using proxy manager including the username and password. This allows me to carry out web surfing and point to point downloads.
4. Firefox works fine, and it obeys the requirements for registering with the proxy. Thunderbird, evolution, Synaptic, Update manager, Software centre etc all fail because they failed to authenticate with the proxy. They all have been set up to use system proxy. (Also tried direct proxy address;port in each package but no go)
5. The ultimate frustration has come from the direct download of Skype (.deb). Double click and it starts to install then crashes because of numerous dependencies (things like libqtgui4).
I am testing with Suse Linux Enterprise Server 10 in a VMWare environment. I've installed two SLES10 servers, named sles1 and sles2. I can't get the two servers to communicate, even a simple ping won't work. The "Network Adapter" in VMWare is set to "bridged", a setting which has worked fine when installing WinXP in VMWare and connecting to the Internet. I have configured the Network Settings as follows:
Hostname/DNS tab: -Hostname: sles1 -Domain Name: local -Name server: blank
Routing tab: -Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1 (= my router connected to the Internet) SLES2: same as sles1, with IP 192.168.0.22 and Hostname sles2
With these network settings, the two servers seem totally unable to communciate. -When I ping sles2 from sles1, I always get the error message: connect: Network is unreachable -Whatever way I ping, either ping sles2, ping sles2.local, ping 192.168.0.22, whatever, the error message is always the same. -Even if I ping sles1 from sles1 (= "pinging myself"), I get the same error message. -Only if I ping localhost, I get a proper ping result.
I would like to install Fedora 11 on an ASUS P5L-VM 1394 motherboard with a 3 GHz Pentium 4 CPU. This is an LGA775 socket mobo with a Intel 945G chipset. Two SATA hard drives are plugged into SATA ports. An IDE DVD drive is plugged into the IDE/ATA port. Using the 32 bit Fedora 11 installation disk, I have seen two cases:
1) No hard drive recognized. When i get to the disk configuration screen, there are no options to choose from.
2) By monkeying around with the BIOS settings or switching the SATA ports the disks are connected to, I can get an alternative mode in which no drivers are found for the DVD drive either.
Currently, a version of Ubuntu is installed. UPDATE: The board was purchased in a P3-PH4C barebones, which for unknown reasons requires a different BIOS issue than the regular P5L-VM 1394. Updating to the most recent BIOS does not resolve the problem. One the installation procedure fails to recognize the hard drives, going into a shell and examining the boot up log shows that the kernel recognized both hard drives. So it's down to why the installation procedure is not recognizing them.
The situation: computer based on Asus P6T motherboard. Two RAIDS:
- 'boot', on motherboard built-in RAID controller (CentOS 5.5 installed on this RAID) - 'data' on 3dware RAID card
At one moment a CPU fan fails and the system halts. After the fan is replaced, BIOS informs it's reset and all the inner controller data are forgotten. After I switch it to 'RAID' mode, it remembers it was a mirror raid (RAID 1) installed, but the file system on it is completely trashed.
The 'data' RAID run by external controller isn't affected by the system failure. Three questions:
- is it worth trying to install OS on the rebuilt 'boot' RAID once again? Looks like if BIOS settings are lost for some reason, there's chance of completely losing RAID data - has someone encountered similar problem with built-in RAID nd was it possible to recover data? - will the software RAID be worth creating instead of using hardware RAID to replace the 'boot' drive?
My necat (nc) doesn't listen! It means when I write "nc -l 3333", I can't communicate data with "nc 127.0.0.1 3333" in another terminal! Also after writing "nc -l 333", I don't see port 333 between the ports which are listening, by "netstat -ln | grep 3333".
I have been trying to set up a network bridge for the 2 virtual machines installed on my Fedora 14 host PC. I want the VM's to be able to ping each other and have their own "network" in which they can operate/communicate. What is the simplest way to accomplish this? Most of what I have read revolves around turning off NetworkManager, and the following config files:
[code]...
Once these files are configured and the network is restarted, the bridge should work. Is this true? I have been encountering problems with this process, specifically when I try to link a VM to a bridge.
I have hesitated posting this because there are a number of threads on the Asus USB N-13.First let me point out that I am using this device.It worked out of the box in Ubuntu 10.10 after several reinstalls using the native Ubuntu driver.However my speed is stuck at 54Mb/s.When tested on a Win7 machine, the connection speed is much closer to 300Mb/s.In wading through the other threads, I am unable to find anyone who has this adaptor running at N speed in Ubuntu 10.10.I have downloaded the latest ASUS driver for LInux but have not installed it as my previous attempts at doing this failed miserably and each time necessitating an OS reinstall.I am an experienced Windows user but a rank newbie when it comes to Ubuntu. The following is the result of iwconfig:chad@linuxbox:~$ iwconfig lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.

I'm not the greatest with linux in general, I mean I know my way around it okay but theres still a ton to learn, and 11.04 is the first version to work on my custom PC without messing up after I update it so I'm left with natty. Anyway I bought my PC with an Asus U8B-N13 Wireless adapter. The disc it came with has the program to install the drivers in Windows, Mac, and Linux, but the Linux drivers need to be compile and I'm yet to have luck doing so. I've tried to somewhat follow an older guide here: [URL].. but I made it as far as extracting the .tgz, then running the make command and got a couple errors. Here is that attempt:
Code: dom@NZXT:~$ cd Desktop dom@NZXT:~/Desktop$ tar -xvzf DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.2_20100422.tgz DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.2_20100422/ DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.2_20100422/iwpriv_usage.txt DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.2_20100422/LICENSE ralink-firmware.txt DPO_RT3070_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.2_20100422/Makefile
I have a Asus N13-usb adapter and i am running ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop. I tried all those commands that you have posted but it led me nowhere. I was wondering if you can help me start off from scratch. I have typed lsub and it showed the device. I followed this thread [URL]and i did it up the part where you downloaded the driver. but i was not able to go further once i typed in the command :
I have an Asus EEE PC 901 from a few years ago with an integrated wireless card (touted as the "integrated Intel Wireless Wi-Fi Link 4965 AGN LAN chip" on the website). I am running Ubuntu's Desktop remix 10.10.
My computer connects fine to any given wireless network the first time around, but will not connect to it again.
After I disconnect from a network, every time I try to connect again, it continually asks for the password, and never fully connects, but will spend about 20 minutes trying and asking for the password and trying again.
Sometimes, it will say it is connected (100% strength) but will never load the google start page. This will last about 2 minutes, then it will disconnect, and start the never-ending connection process again.
I recently purchased an Asus n10 wireless usb adapter to use with my media server, running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx). After spending several hours today with many of the threads (especially this one about the Asus n13) it seems that I've run out of ideas.
My network is running a hidden (non-broadcast) SSID ("Potato") with wpa2 personal encryption.
Here is the relevant information from lsusb:
Code: Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0b05:1786 ASUSTek Computer Inc.
Iwconfig follows. The rest of the values, like link quality & etc, are all zero:
I recently bought an Asus laptop and had a friend install ubuntu 10.04. After the install was complete I tried to connect to a network and there was no networks available. After some research time my friend said the I need network drivers to install in ubuntu.
Im a newb to ubuntu just wiped my brand new asus 1001p netbook of windwos 7 and put ubuntu netbook remix on it 9.10....Everything works great except the wireless...I know theres probally a billion topics on this, but i just need step by step easdy to follow guide on how to do this...I asked the IT at my work and he claims it cant be done, unless i switch out the internal wireless to a card that "just works", which im not comfortable with or use a usb wireless stick, which defeats the purpose of a netbook being so small....Im sure this can be done so please help me show up a IT that doesnt know linux .BTW the wireless card is a atheros thats all i know..
I just installed Ubuntu lucid beta2, but I'm having no luck getting my wireless card (Asus WL-103b cardbus) to work. It uses the b43legacy driver. I have also installed the correct firmware. This card used to work if I'm not mistaken.
I recently purchased an Asus USB-N13 and am having some trouble getting it setup. I have followed this post [URL] including downloading the driver version, but I am now a little stuck. This is a laptop which used to have a Netgear Wg111v2 wireless USB adapter (laptop does not have internal wireless). That adapter died so I purchased the Asus. The day I purchased the Asus adapter they were both plugged in at the same time for a short period - not sure if that is relevant or not but just thought I should let you know. Here is some output from various commands:
I've bought a Asus EEEpc 1005 PX and trired to install Ubuntu netbook. But I found that wifi is not working. It's not detecting the wifi cards.I tried ifconfig, and it is showing me,When I tried LSPCI it's showing me
Just purchased a Asus USB-N13, and having follwed a mixture of tutorials, including the readme on the driver disk, i have had no luck in getting this adapter to work.Upon using "sudo iwlist ra0 scan" the adapter can see multiple networks, however device manager is stating that the device is not managed. How can I get this sorted and connect to a network?
