Ubuntu Networking :: "Create New Network" Not Functioning As Directed
Sep 20, 2010
I've gotten the Ubuntu Broadcom STA driver working on my AppleTV by (not blacklisting) adding the appropriate rmmod statements to my rc.local script. The system now recognizes the card; lswh -C network:
[Code]....
I can now successfully join wifi networks on the device. My ultimate goal is to create a wifi AP using the card via Ubuntu. The card is a bcm4328. I have attempted to create a wifi hotspot using the "Create new network" menu item from the network menu applet. When I try to join the network on my MacBook, it apparently can join successfully, but then gets a "Self Assigned IP" which is outside the LAN's subnet (which is 192.168.200.X, while the IP on the MBP is 169.254.161.193 and the network control panel indicates that it is self-assigned).
It would appear that the AP on the AppleTV is not bridged with the wifi. I have attempted to follow the CLI-based tutorials but chickened out when I saw I had to set the card to master mode as I do not believe the bcm4328 is capable of this.

I need static networking to be functional on F14 to try freeipa....the problem I have is I am unable to get eth0 to start. Knowing the software it has to be eth0 or it will likely not work... The guest is in a RHEV6svr environment... So I have disabled NetworkManager and enabled networ and set manula settings in ifcfg-eth0 incl the hware address but eth0 wont start on boot....
next I tried setting a e1000 network card after the hypervisor default didnt work, only to find that this doesnt work either. The MAC addresses are changing as I try and fault find a dead DNS client issue (yet another F14 issue but lets not go there yet, it could be RHEV's "funky" NATing setup)....so I suspect F14 has got its knickers in a twist over the MAC for ETH0....I keep changing it and I suspect it cant keep up.....so I need to disable the automatic function(s), if there is one....
So somewhere down in the code there is probably a line saying eth0= <mac address> but despite greping I cant find that.....or not something that I edit and it then works.... I have tried the gui tools and command line tools and I still have no network..... So what would be a totally CLI process to fix this automated crap? ie stop F14 pointing at the wrong MAC for eth0?

Using Fedora 10, can anyone tell me how to setup the network scripts to create two network interfaces for vlan x and y. Both interfaces should obtain an ip from dhcp and both interfaces should run over eth0.

I'm sure it's a minor mistake; these are the steps I've taken currentdomain: domain i already have, and works. newdomain: domain i newly bought.
[Code]....
This is to make sure the files are actually there, this subdomain works... simply pointing to the same folder
[Code]...
- all ipadresses in the hosting service of the domain thing is pointing to the vps.
- Within the vps that servername is directed to the directory /var/www/the_directory
- That directory holds the actual website files. This is proven with the subdomain method.

I installed the netbook remix of 9.10 on a Dell mini10. (Dual boot with XP) I knew that I would have to install the broadcom drivers to get the wireless up and running. What I didn't anticipate is that the eth0 interface would not work. ifconfig shows the device and lists the ip as a 192.xxx number. I am wired directly into our network, and expect an IP in the 10.10.etc range. Pings either return a host unreachable message or say network unreachable. This problem persists even if I set the card to a known good IP. ifdown eth0 returns a message that the interface is not configured. ifup returns a message that it is ignoring the interface.After fighting that problem for a while, I re-installed, thinking that perhaps something had gotten fouled up in the installation process. The problem persists. Nothing has changed.

internet access is no longer working on my computer, ie wget, ping, apt-get update all return unkown host (url or whatever).
However the system monitor (Network History) shows that the system is sending and receiving packets. And what I think is network manager applet shows active network signals for both wireless and ethernet.
I know my laptop has not acquired hardware faults. Since I am posting this message and accessing the internet through the same computer with a Ubuntu live USB start up disk.
I searched through the forums for related posts and tried suggestions. Forinstance
the /etc/resolv.conf
file is the same for both live usb system and hard drive system, so it can not be that.
# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 79.138.0.180
nameserver 85.8.31.209
the /etc/network
interfaces file looks like:
code....
I tried the system test (System->Administration->System Test), with only Network tests selected). The results of system test were so extensive I searched for the word internet and extracted lines for internet. Interestingly it says both the network_test and the internet_test are _passed_.
But the internet does not work in either in web browsers or with BASH commands.
And also:
erlang-inets Erlang/OTP Internet clients and servers
python-twisted-bin Event-based framework for internet applications
python-twisted-core Event-based framework for internet applications
network_test pass
internet_test pass

I connected a USB Wireless Dongle (Sapido AU-4512S) on my Ubuntu 10.04 64bit. I wanted to share my wired internet connection from my pc to my friend's laptop.
So, I did the following:
1. Installed ndiswrapper-utils, ndiswrapper-common and ndisgtk in Synaptic Package Manager.
2. Installed Windows 7 64bit driver of my USB Dongle through Wireless Network Drivers(ndisgtk)
3. Now it says, net8192su -- Hardware present: Yes
4. Created a Ad-hoc connection clicking on Network Manager > create new wireless network..
5. Edited the Name, set Security to WEP 128-bit Passphrase and entered my desired password.
6. Finally clicked Create but it says "Wireless Connection disconnected"
I'm thinking about maybe the problem is with my dongle so I checked by using the command:
Code:
which gives me information about wlan0
The next thing I did worsen the situation. I unplugged the USB dongle ang plugged it again. This time,
Code:
gives me no result anymore.
Code:
Also, the option that says "create new wireless connection" disappeared in my Network Manager Applet now.
Now I have no problem. To restore the "Create new wireless connection" in my Network Manager Applet and finally create a wifi hotspot using my wired connection from pc.

I installed 10.04 today, not having used this system for Ubuntu since 8.04. My wireless card (Texas Instruments ACX 111) worked perfectly in Windows XP and 7, and it worked on installation in 8.04.
I did a clean, full install of 10.04 (no dual boot or anything), but the wireless card is not working. The OS doesn't even seem to recognize that it is there because I can't even scan for networks, let alone connect.
The only reason I have a connection on this computer is because I am sharing the internet via ethernet from my Macbook.

Dell N4010 and other brands with UBUNTU 10.04
Wireless need propriety drivers and will not function with out them being installed
And LAN port (wired RJ45 port) is not working too.
So what is the easy way to update these drivers.
Borrow someone else USB wireless adapter, that will work instantly with Ubuntu version you just installed.
[URL]
Then you can update on line via USB wireless adapters. I use WG111v2 to connect to dell 4010 to update other wireless drivers.

I am having some issues and my fixes are not even close to functioning anymore.I originally downloaded this driver http:[url]... and, though I occasionally had to re- "make-install" it, it worked.Last night, I did the system updates Ubuntu suggested and this morning, my WiFi is not functioning .Here are the "common commands" and stuff I have used so far to try to debug the problem.
lspci: 1a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20) 0c:03.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6306/7/8 [Fire II(M)] IEE iwconfig: wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"***** ******" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=20 dBm Retry long limit:7 RTS thrff Fragment thrff Power Managementff
I am slightly confused as to why my Wireless LAN Controller doesn't come up as my Realtek 8185, but I think that may be issue number 1. The next bit of confusion comes from the fact that wlan0 is shown as connected to the correct SSID, even showing a frequency, but is not, infact, sending or receiving from that source.As I have said before, I just really nee WiFi to work.I was having issues with my sound and graphics cards,so I ran the update manager, but I wasn't expecting it to break my drivers!It is also worth noting that I have actually tried to recompile my drivers and re-install them, they don't seem to be working, for some reason.

I tried using b43-fwcutter in accordance with the Ubuntu Forums and nothing happened, and then I decided to look a little further. According to LinuxWireless.org, the BCM4306/2 actually uses the b43legacy drivers, so I purged all of b43-fwcutter along with firmware-b43-installer and downloaded firmware-b43legacy-installer.
$ sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43legacy-installer
Nothing happened, so I downloaded b43legacy manually per the instructions listed at LinuxWireless.com, and manually extracted from wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o to my /lib/firmware folder. Nothing happened again. I made sure to check additional drivers and nothing shows up.
As per the ticket posting instructions, I've included all the info you guys could need. from what I can conclude, the wireless isn't even ON, but it's integrated and I have NO IDEA what I have to do to get it up and running.
At least in OpenSuSE 11.3 LXDE I was able to get the wireless on, although I had some major connection issues, I guess it couldn't resolve the handshake completely, or take my SSID/PSK properly.
Here goes! (God bless 2>&1 | tee -a)

There seems to be a lot written about virtual networking but I am not sure what approach to take in my situation. My local subnet has a public block of 128 addresses. I have a virtual host running on my machine. My machine has a static address and I'd need to assign one to the guest. I have edited the guest's interface file and assigned a public address to it's eth0. However the guest cannot ping out and I can't ping in.
By default the virtual machine manager creates a virtual network (virbr0) and assigned a private address range to it. I have tried to create a new virtual network using a subnet of my public range (/31) but the manager says the range must to a minimum of 16 addresses (/4). It doesn't look possible to achieve my aims using the virtual machine manager.
In the past I have used the procedure laid out here:[URL].. which is to manually create a bridge. I am not sure that is relevant for my 9.10. I think I would have to disable the network manager if I were to do that and I am not sure how to do that.

I was uninstalling some programs through the package manager, then restarted. When my netbook turned back on, I had no internet connection and the WiFi icon wasn't showing in the notification area as it usually does either. Says the card is functioning properly and everything. Other devices can connect to the WiFi.I'm kind of new to Ubuntu and searched around a bit, but am at a loss. HP Mini 110Ubuntu 10.10Broadcom BCM4313Edit: Quote:$ sudo ifconfig -s

I have a question with named and cname records. I wrote a CNAME record into a zone yesterday:
valami.teszt.hu. IN CNAME teszt.hu.
teszt.hu has an A record:
teszt.hu. 14400 IN A val.id.I.P
I restarted named. My problem is: when I visit valami.teszt.hu I get the "Apache is functioning normally" message, and not teszt.hu. And if I write an A record for valami.teszt.hu instead of CNAME record (valami.teszt.hu. 14400 IN A val.id.I.P), the valami.teszt.hu will display
message mentioned above too.

I just loaded the Ubuntu maverick AMD64 beta and to my regret I see that the wireless adapter isn't functioning, even after applying updates through wired connection.
Terminal lspci -v command tells me that the network adapter is present as Atheros AR928X Wireless Network Adapter on PCI-E - rev 01 and that the ath9k module is being used by the kernel.

Just replaced a working install of Ubuntu because i like GS over unity but i cant get my USB760 EVDO card to work. The usual fix of editing the cd.rules file and copying some information into modem.fdi does not seem to work on F15..
Also, noticed that when i attempt to create a broadband connection using network manager it allows me to go through all of the setup dialogs, but never actually adds the broadband connection.

I have a CentOS 5.5 server running currently with a Netgear gigabit ethernet card and for wifi I have a wi-fi card with the chipset: RT2860.Now I have gotten the ethernet card and wi-fi card working but my main question is: How do you bridge the connection between the ethernet card and the wi-fi card to create a wireless network with a hidden ESSID if possible and WPA encryption? (So the server basically acts as a wireless router as well as doing all the other stuff I need to do on it).

So I have the strange task of trying to make something like I said above work in Lubuntu 10.04. But every time I do, the share is not accessible because none of the important permissions (other) can be set because its, well, NTFS in linux. And I know of no way to fix it.Is there an easy way, preferably with Nautilus since the person I am setting this up for isn't a computer expert, to setup this share so thats its accessible and writable by other computers on the network?

I created a new user "www". I can login with this user. I can send emails (using sendmail) from this user to other users. But this user cannot receive any email. All emails sent to "www" will go to "root" mailbox. Is "www" a special account under sendmail that all emails will be re-directed to "root"?

I'm on opensuse 11.4 (11.3 won't work with my monitor).
My computer gets internet through wireless and I want to share that internet through its ethernet port. So far I've tried using Knetworkmanager to create a network bridge between my wireless and wired connections. I created a new wired connection and shared it using the ip address settings. I was able to get both connections active, but the device hooked up via ethernet had no internet connectivity.
I also tried this command:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
but another test resulted in the same fashion (no internet on wired). I believe anything I add to /proc should have an immediate effect, correct?

EDIT: Whoops. Just realized that there is a Networking subforum. Apologies. In 10.04, I am able to get to the dialog in NM that asks for the network name and security for the creation of a new wireless network. However, the "Connect" button is grayed out and filling out all fields doesn't allow me to press it. I assume that this means that either there is a problem with my configuration or that my network card is not supported. Here is the lshw entry for my wireless card:
Code:
*-network
description: Wireless interface
product: PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection
vendor: Intel Corporation
[Code]...
EDIT2: Well, I was able to make an ad hoc connection via "Edit Connections" This seems to be a bug in the NetworkManager dialog.
