Ubuntu Networking :: Configure Wireless PCI NIC In 10.10 Server?
Nov 12, 2010
I've installed 10.10 server edition on a box I just want to use for file storage/backup, uPnP server, etc. The area I need to put the box doesn't have ethernet as an option so I'm trying to get this wireless NIC configured. It's a Buffalotech WLI2-PCI-G54S which runs the Broadcom 4306 chipset. I've managed to get the drivers for the card installed via the instructions here: [URL]
The drivers are working properly as I can run
Code:
iwlist scan
and see all the wireless networks it detects. I found the info here: [URL] to complete the configuration, but I'm still unable to get it right. My wireless router is configured to use WPA2-PSK with AES. I could just try installing gnome and get the GUI network config, but would like to avoid that if possible.

how to configure an Ubuntu 10.10 server with a secured wireless network? I installed everything while it was wired, but I need to get it wireless. I downloaded the desktop to see if it could help me in configuring the wireless network, but it didn't help. how to configure wireless internet on an Ubuntu 10.10 Server in the terminal, which is preferred, or in the desktop.
When I type the command iwconfig, it shows eth1 being me wireless device. When I try and edit it, nothing changes! I don't know what I need to change other than the ESSID and the WEP key. I'm assuming I need to change the access point too, but it doesn't let me. Is there any specific order they must be changed in?

How can we configure a wireless network from commandline in Ubuntu?
I understand iwlist will give us the list of access points.
Next using iwconfig it is possible to connect to a wireless network without network manager. connect to a wireless network using commandline?

I have an MSI Megabook M662. Can't get my wireless working. I have "enabled" checked, but can't view any connections. I don't have wireless at home, I'm trying to make this work for free connections at the library, etc. From the Help Menu troubleshooting I tried:
mag@MSIubuntu:~$ sudo lshw -C network
[sudo] password for mag:
*-network
description: Ethernet interface
[code]...
This reports Disabled, and the advice is to check that device is on. But I just want to roam for service, I don't have my own wireless at home. I thought I might need to use ndiswrapper but I cannot locate a driver for this card info:
lspci -nn 02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller [10ec:8168] (rev 01)
What should I try now?

I just install Ubuntu 10.04 on a new laptop. there was no driver for the wireless interface. I then install the proprietary driver. The wireless adapter name is now eth1. My problem is that networkmanager0.7 does not realize that a wireless adapter was configured. and I cannot find where to configure eth1 as its wireless adapter. Where is the menu for that?

I have a Belkin Wireless G F5D7230-4. I was attempting to configure a wireless card on another computer on my network when it froze during the reboot phase after making settings adjustments. The wired connection is fine, except on that computer that I was making the adjustments from. It won't connect at all. I plugged a friends netbook into the same wired line and it connected. Also there is no wireless signal on any laptops. Mac, Win Linux, don't matter. I tried all the various methods of resetting to default but still when I try to access the router's config page @ http://192.168.2.1 I get the error Code: The server at 192.168.2.1 is taking too long to respond.

I am deployed to Iraq and the Earthlink ISP here uses PPPoE to configure a connection to their wireless broadband. His english skills are pretty good and from what I gather, he's got a DSL connection that he's trying to connect me to. He showed me how he does it on a Windows machine but I can't figure it out on my ubuntu laptop. That windows machine didn't need any IP addresses or server names. It only used a username and password to connect. Of course a strong wireless signal detected was also pre-requisite.
I know my laptop works because I've had great success with it here lately, just not on the Earthlink service.I see their wireless is broadcast and I can connect to it. I just can't figure out how to post my credentials and authenticate.I don't see a way of entering my username and password because I don't know how to install (or configure) for PPPoE.I did use the pppoeconfig and got to the part where I add my username and password, but most of what's going on up to and after that, I do not have the knowledge base to use. So I figured that allowing the defaults and recommended settings would be acceptableYou'll have to forgive me if I've asked another dumb question here. I'm another one of those Linux enthusiasts who is learning and I'm just not willing to switch back to MS just to get internet while deployed.

I have a Netopia USB wireless adapter, model # TER/GUSB-N that I am having trouble configuring it. I was wondering if anyone would mind lending some support? Basically, I am setting up a webcam server in my kid's playroom so that I can monitor them from downstairs in my home office. The 10/100 network card works fine, but I need to install the wireless lan card because the computer will be far away from the router.
I have the i386 Debian 5.0.7 installed on a headless computer, no GNOME just CLI. Here some additional information:
lsusb
Code:
camserver1:~# lsusb
Bus 004 Device 003: ID 148f:9021 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2501USB Wireless Adapter
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 046d:09a1 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Communicate MP/S5500
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
code....
I really enjoy linux a lot. I'm learning a lot each day. I prefer doing things in shell, so if possible, please don't ask me to install GNOME. Using CLI helps me understand more about linux and how to manage the system.

I still cannot access to internet. May I know why?
Is it due to the Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A)
The step i did:
1) iwlist eth1 scanning
2) sudo iwconfig eth1 essid shabana key s:xxxxxx
3) invoke firefox ... cannot surf
Do I need to set dhclient? how should I set? DO I need to enable wpa_supplicant?
iwlist eth1 scanning
sound like I was able to connect to ESSID:shabana. Is it true?
The linux is Centos 5.4

I have a desktop and a laptop. I have Netgear WGR614v9 Wireless Router connected to my desktop. Since my Laptop is pretty old I also bought a Netger Wireless Adapter for the sme model. Now when I connect the Wireless Adapter I am unable to connect to Wi-fi. I am new to Linux, after googling I ran "lsusb" command and it showed Netgear Wireless adapter and its version. Also in GUI when I open File Browser it also shows the Adapter detected but I am unable to connet the same to my router. Also the blue light on the adapter is not glowing.

Ive been struggling to configure a wireless interface on Fedora 9I need to configure wlan0 command line only with NO display managerIve tried setting up /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 with the right information, doing dhcpbut no ip is retrieved. Checking the dhcp server logs on the DHCP server - no request is received.The link light on the wireless nic is not on either. iwconfig shows it has an Access point associated and an ESSID but im not getting back any IP.There seems to be very little documenta on how to set up wireless nics command line only on Fedora

The symptom is that NetworkManager repeatedly ask for password to connect to my AP.My AP is secured with WPA-PKI. The problem even happens with Fedora 11 live cd if I'm not quickly configure wireless connection using NetworkManager right after Fedora completes booting up. It means if I promptly configure wireless connection, i'm still able to access Internet. Same thing happens for the first boot of Fedora from hdd. For the second boot or when I dont quickly configure wireless connection when system finished booting up, NetworkManger repeatedly asks for password for AP.
I did try several approaches posted in this forum but problem still persisted. Some of approaches I tried are:

I am a first time Linux user - though I've Unix and Windows experience. So though I can follow your most tech instructions, I'll need some hand-holding.
Need help getting my wireless network to work on my newly installed Oracle Linux on Dell laptop.
Not sure what wireless card is installed, or it's mac address (though I can boot into windows and get that info, I don't want to - it'll be kind of a let down if I can't fix it all thru Linux).
Install has detected a Broadcom wired card, but not the wireless. Funny thing is that it detected the Bluetooth.

I try to configure a server at home on Ubuntu 10.04 (French Server)
I have 3 network :
eth1 for lan (IP FIX) 192.168.1.100
ppp0 for a vpn connection on an English Server (IP DHCP)
tun0 for openvpn i use it to connect to my French Server from Anywhere
I draw it here
My problem is when i activate my ppp0 connexion i can't connect tun0 because all port are redirect on ppp0 connexion (i can connect only when i'm on the LAN)
OF course i redirect the port of my IP Public to my French Server IP Private. If i don't activate the ppp0 connexion i can connect to my server with tun0 connexion from everywhere !
So i try do this redirection but it's not working and i don't no why ???
Code:
### Routing acces openvpn et vnc de la connexion ppp0 vers eth1
sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -j DNAT -i ppp0 -p udp --dport 1194 --to-destination 192.168.1.100

how-to configure squid proxy server. I still haven't been able to find a solution. I want to set up squid as a open http proxy server. So people from other networks can connect through the proxy without having to login.Do I have to use iptables to reroute http traffic to squids proxy port? I have forwarded the port in my ISP modem so I know thats working, its the squid config that has flaws or iptables locally.

This is probably an odd request, but figured I'd ask in case someone knew. We have a lab that has the IP range 172.10.0.0/16 (255.255.0.0). The lab gateway/DHCP assigns an IP in the range of 172.10.0.2-172.10.0.254. I want to set up my own DHCP server on a specific range, for example 172.10.10.1-172.10.10.254. I create a new host fine, but since it's set for DHCP, it uses the DHCP server at 172.10.0.1. Is there a way to force it to use a different DHCP server on the client side? I realize that I can work around this with exclusions on the 172.10.0.1 DHCP server, or use iptables to deny DHCP requests to specific MACs, but wanted to know if there was an (easier?) way to configure the client to use the 172.10.10.1 DHCP server instead of the 172.10.0.1 server?
