Ubuntu Networking :: EeePC Natty Slow Internet After Reinstall?

Jun 16, 2011

I had a dual install of Windows and Ubuntu working for a good week, then I reinstalled Ubuntu, completely wiping the machine. My connection is greatly reduced--updates take hours to install, but internet surfs okay.

Code:

mieum@mieum-1000HE:~$ sudo ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:24:8c:29:5e:4b
inet addr:59.17.55.227 Bcast:59.17.55.255 Mask:255.255.255.224

Ubuntu Networking :: Slow Internet After Updating To Natty With Wlan-rt73usb?

May 8, 2011

After updating to kubuntu 11.04 natty, I have a problem with my internet-connection. The problem happens when I use VoIP-Software like Skype or Twinkle and also when using ktorrent.

When using the mentioned software, after 30-90 seconds the internet gets very slow. In f.e. skype, I can hear the one I phoned very badly.

I use kubuntu on a desktop-PC with a Linksys USB-Wlan-Stick. Detailed information is below.

Code:
uname -a
Linux pr1-desktop 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:24 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Ubuntu Networking :: Cannot Access Internet With Asus Eeepc 1015p

Nov 18, 2010

i've just installed ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 on my asus eeepc 1015p. whether i use an ethernet cable or wireless, i can establish a connection, but i can't access any websites through firefox or get software via the software manager.

i've attached some terminal screenshots from my attempts at troubleshooting, which i think contain all the relevant hardware info.

i've already searched the forums and see a lot of problems similar to mine, but none seem to involve the same combination of hardware / ubuntu version as me. since i have no experience, i'm hesitant to try to apply solutions that i don't understand and in which i'm not totally confident.

Networking :: Cannot Connect To Internet Wired Or Wirelessly On Eeepc

Jan 6, 2010

I just installed ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix (karmic koala) on my eeepc so im pretty new to linux but getting the hang of it. i was running windows before and the wireless and wired connections were perfectly fine. when i installed ubuntu, i chose it as my main system and wiped windows. now i cannot connect to the internet through the ethernet cable or wirelessly. even though i put in the right ip adress etc it doesnt work. the wireless doesnt even pick anything up so i uninstalled network manager. i installed wicd network manager and that doesnt pick anything either. BTW using a Ralink RT2860 network card.

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.10 / Asus EeePC 1001P - Can't Connect To Internet - Only Wifi

Feb 5, 2011

Just got a secondhand Asus EeePC 100P netbook, fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10, and while I can connect to my wireless network and access the router through the browser, I can't connect to the internet. Pinging any other sites, either by domain name or IP, doesn't work. I've tried various things suggested in similar threads (putting in the DNS server info manually, disabling ipv6, restarting about a gazillion times), but nothing's worked so far. (My other computer, a Mac, can connect just fine.)

Attempted to install ndiswrapper, failed miserably, and I'm not sure if that's just for situations where the wifi itself doesn't work?

I'd be very grateful for any suggestions.

Here's what's under Connection Information at the moment:Interface: 802.11 WiFi (wlan0)

Hardware Address: 1C:4B6:85:13:F4
Driver: ath9k
Speed: 1 Mb/s

Ubuntu Installation :: UNR And Skype - Eeepc 901 - Always Crashing And Running Slow

Apr 8, 2010

Last year I installed UNR on my 7yr old daughter eeepc901. It came with XP Home but was always crashing and running slow. Since all she needed it for was browsing childrens sites and the odd email from myself i decided to put something better on there and in the end choose UNR.

Its been running great for, However I have now taken a new where I am now based in Germany. I have set her up with a skype acct and last night we managed a video call for a couple of minuets although I couldnt hear her very well (couldnt figure out how to get her to turn the volume on up her Mic) When I first set skype up i set it to auto login which when ever I used the laptop to test it worked fine.

However as I am now in Germany and not able to really help with the settings The first thing I thought of doing was to upgrade the version of skype her laptop is running. So I can go to skype and downlaod 2.1 beta 2 for linux would this be the correct version?

Also what I need is a set of instructions that I can give to either my 7yr old daughter or her mother (daughter is probably the better of the two with computers)
on how to install the new version. Mum is used to windows where she just double clicks an .exe file and follows the prompts.

Also where would I need them to look in order to get them to turn the mic volume up?

Ubuntu :: After Upgrade To Natty About To Reinstall 10.10?

May 1, 2011

obviously natty is flawed. I upgraded as an option in ubuntu studio's update manager. not sure if studio was ment to be upgraded to natty but it was in the manager, as studio is still 10.10 maverick. regardless the results have been disastrous. i am running into problem after problem as apparently many users are.

i had recently done a fresh install of ubuntu studio maverick which seemed perfect. as i was still setting up and restoring until i noticed the option for natty. so while i'm still at it i think i'm going to reinstall 10.10 this is the first imperfect ubuntu upgrade i've experienced but linux still rules.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired + Wireless Connected But Natty Picks Wrong Network For Internet

May 15, 2011

I have a wireless network (192.168.1.0) that's bridged to the Internet and a wired one (192.168.0.0) that's only local. When I am connected to both networks, Natty wants to route my Internet traffic through the wired, local-only one.

Can I make it automatically "just work", so that the right network is chosen for Internet traffic? Otherwise, what's the workaround?

Ubuntu Networking :: Why Is Internet Speed Is So Slow?

Feb 10, 2010

When using launchpad and the ubuntu daily build website it is very slow. I get 1.2mb/s normally and the speed drops quickly to 0kb/s This is the case from any version of ubuntu that is installed on my laptop.In windows it is no problem, equally there is no problem from a live cd or an install on my external hard disk. Is canonical blacklisting/slow listing my ip?

I am behind a university network but am sure this problem occurs at home .I did a clean install and had no problem until about an hour ago. When I tried to re download a project using bzr my speed instantly ropped.I had downloaded it fine a couple of hours ago. I hope that someone can shine some light on this, its very hard to work on projects if I can't download them.

I'm finding that the internet speed in Ubuntu 10.04 is over twice as slow as the speeds that I am getting in Windows 7.I've tried disabling IPv6 through Grub and Firefox but it didn't really help much.. anything else I can try?Connecting through wireless at 54 Mbps.

Ubuntu Networking :: Satellite Internet - Should It Really Slow This Much?

Jul 26, 2010

I'm staying out at a friend's house in the middle of nowhere, and she's been complaining about how slow her satellite internet has been of late. So I decided I'd take a look. If I ping my server at home, I end up with these statistics:

Code:
// @ 1 ping probe per second
60 packets transmitted, 36 received, 40% packet loss, time 59172ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 639.915/799.882/1209.119/104.763 ms, pipe 2

Compare that to driving 70 down the highway tethered to my cell phone: I see latencies in the 3000's and out-of-order packets, but practically none get dropped. If you ramp it up to 5 ping probes a second, the loss climbs to around 75%. To me, that seems quite excessive. The interesting thing is that all the packet loss seems to be occurring on download traffic - I set up tcpdump to monitor the packets on my server during the ping test, and all but 1 of the pings to got there, so the other 25 lost packets wondered astray on the return trip. I tested it with the client directly connected to the modem (it had the public IP).

So I'm quite certain that it's the satellite link itself that is the issue here. I've attached the complete logs from the ping test for your enjoyment. Of course, TCP corrects for the loss of packets, but with a latency of 800ms, resending packets takes a significant amount of time, not to mention services like DNS that just wait for a timeout to elapse (which is usually way too long). It can take 15 seconds to load a webpage. So I guess my question is, should it be this bad? I know satellite is generally terrible, but I didn't expect to see such rampant packet droppage.

Ubuntu Networking :: SLOW Updates And Internet ?

Sep 11, 2010

I just installed dual boot Ubuntu 10.04 on my WinXP laptop. The laptop is a Compaq v2552us.

In windows mode, the internet works plenty fast.

In Ubuntu, I can't download a single update for hardware drivers or for ubuntu (it says there are 74 though).

It starts to DL, but max speed is about 800B/s, but that only last for a couple seconds before it switches to unknown. I am connected to my wireless router via cable, can't even get wireless to work (I suspect the aforementioned hardware drivers, which is why I need this to work).

Ubuntu Networking :: Internet Slow When 2nd Computer Is Off

Jun 15, 2011

I have 2 computers connected to my linksys router via ethernet cables.

My main computer is running Ubuntu while the other is Xubuntu.

When both comps are on, the internet works fine, but when my second computer is off, my main computer has super slow internet. Sometimes it takes 2 minutes and I get "This webpage is not available", and then I refresh that and it finally loads.

Why does it work when both comps are on? What could cause this?

Networking :: Internet Connection Really Slow In LAN

Dec 15, 2008

I use Slackware 12.1 and I have a big problem that I can't solve by myself. I'm connecting to a LAN where there are almost 20 PC connected, all with static IP.

my ip: 192.168.1.205
netmask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS server: 80.58.61.250, 80.58.61.254

I configured manually it but it doesn't works well. I set up the DHCP server on Windows 2003 so I tried to configure it with dhcp too. It gives addresses from 192.168.1.200 to 192.168.1.240 there are no PCs connected with DHCP at the moment, so my IP is only mine.

It takes a lot of time connecting to a internet web site! It's really strange because downloading a file the transferring rate is good, it takes some time starting, but it works normally.

Networking :: Slow Internet Connection

Jan 17, 2010

I set up my linux router as a simple NAT router. I use CentOS 5.4. When I set up ISP proxy IP in the browser of client PC, Internet access is fast. When I remove ISP proxy IP from the browser, Internet access is slow.

ISP use transparent caching but I can use manual caching as well. Clients on my network with transparent caching get slow internet access and using ISP proxy get fast internet access.

ISP announce that we can use transparent caching or manual caching.

So, I set up my linux router with squid. I set up cache_peer TAG point to ISP's proxy IP. But the problem is the same. Using my squid proxy is slow and using ISP proxy directly is fast. All other network settings are correct.

How can I improve my internet connection using transparent caching. I don't want to set up proxy IP address on all clients.

Ubuntu Networking :: 9.10 Internet Slow ... Tried Disabling Ipv6

Feb 1, 2010

Is karmic is slower for you all: if you're running windows ping a server on windows/ubuntu and compare. 9.10 is consistently slower for me. I've seen enough "slow internet" posts to suspect that someone screwed up bad. Everyone says it's ipv6, but none of the fixes work for me. Pretty sure it's ipv6 (or at least a dns-related problem):

Ubuntu Networking :: Slow Internet And Webcam Does Not Work

May 12, 2010

I've been running Ubuntu 10.04 inside Windows 7 (demo version) for 2 weeks or so now and I really loved it. So much so that, last night I decided to burn the boot cd and put a full installation of it on the computer, instead of using Windows 7. After doing so, I started getting some small problems.

First problem was with aMSN, the webcam doesn't work anymore. It used to work when I was using the demo version of Ubuntu, but not anymore. I had to use meebo to get it to work, don't think that's a problem with Ubuntu though.
Secondly, Firefox is running really terribly. Whenever I try to watch a video, it stutters REALLY bad, as if it's maxing out my CPU.

Third, I'm getting an error message whenever I start Google Chrome, it says:
"Your profile could not be opened correctly. Some features may be unavailable. Please check that profile exists and you have permission to read and write its contents."
It plays videos well but half time the audio doesn't work and I have to restart Chrome. (I tried uninstalling and reinstalling through synaptic, but that didn't work, the problem was still there).

Fourth and finally, the internet is just really really slow. Since the moment I installed the full version of Ubuntu it's be REALLY slow. I tried a download through bittorrent and the speeds were terrible, I ran a speed test while downloading (upload was limited to 5 kb/s) and I was still getting speeds of just around 10kb/s. So I closed bittorrent ran a speed test again and I had 1mb download and .75mb upload with 31 ping. I ran the test again and got 42 ping with same download and same upload. While I was downloading, the ping was 309. My normal speed is supposed to be 6mb download and 1mb upload

I guess version 7.0X had internet issues aswell because, when I did a google search for a solution, it turned up several results on how to fix it for 7.0X, which didn't work because the alias list didn't have anything in there. (the fix had something to do with ipv6). I tried direct connecting my internet and the speedtest results were normal, so I've concluded that it has something to do with my router. However, I don't know how to do a firmware update or troubleshoot the issue on Ubuntu. I finally decided to give up on Ubuntu and switch back to Windows 7. However, my drive is currently formatted into ext4 and I need to go back to NTFS, how do I do that? Could I just use gparted?

Ubuntu Networking :: Internet Extremely Slow Or Not Working At All?

Jun 10, 2010

so i had Jaunty installed last week with no problem. But then i decided to install winxp, erasing it. I hated it, and reinstalled ubuntu, this time lucid.However, the internet has stopped working properly. I've tried wireless and wired connections and they either dont work or will load half a web page after a few minutes. A good deal of the time the browser will time out or fail to find server.The ethernet is working, so I'm assuming the issue is with a missing driver or the such. I have 10.04 32bit installed on Gateway MD2614u laptop.

Ubuntu Networking :: Internet Becomes Extremely Slow When Using Static Ip?

Jul 23, 2010

I am currently facing a weird problem, It's that the internet connection becomes extremely slow when using static IP instead of DHCP when Im connected through a cable! The local network seems okay with both, but differs when using the internet!

I've ran a ping test and got the following results!

using static IP

Code:
$ ping -c 3 google.com
PING google.com (209.85.153.104) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 209.85.153.104: icmp_seq=1 ttl=42 time=343 ms

[Code].....

When I used static IP i received only one packet while when using DHCP i received all three!! Also I lost 66% of the packets when using the Static IP connection! And most importantly, the speed, DHCP connection was 8 times faster than Static IP connection!

Ubuntu Networking :: Internet Slow After Upgrade To Kernel 2.6.32-24?

Jul 27, 2010

I have just built a PC based around an i7-860 and Asus P7P55D mobo. It was running fine until the big update that happened today and now the internet is like treacle. I did the same update to my other (different hardware) PC and all is fine with it.

When I load the earlier 2.6.32-21 kernel instead of 2.6.32-24, the new system works as it should and the Internet is very fast. This suggests to me that the kernel update is the problem, most likely the NIC driver. This motherboard has a Realtek 8112L NIC fitted.

Has anyone else had this issue and what is the best way around it other than loading the older kernel and hoping that the next update will fix it?

Ubuntu Networking :: Gateway Changed And Now VERY Slow Internet?

Sep 23, 2010

Previously had 2 Ubuntu computers setup Computer A (192.168.1.101) <=> Computer B (192.168.1.100) -> Internet Computer B was the gateway, and it is dual boot, one drive Ubuntu, one drive XP. I'm using XP as the gateway now, but Computer A is extremely slow, virtually nothing getting through.

Have checked sysytem logs, verified /etc/hosts file, and all the network side of things. Can ping either IP adddresses from either computer. On the XP side, have modified hosts and lmhosts, and the XP computer has very fast internet connection.

Did have Commodo firewall running on the XP, disabled that, and checked that no Windooze firewall was running. Have restarted the network on both computers a number of times. Can't figure out what the problem is. It's obviously on the XP side, as when I booted to Ubuntu (previously) on Computer B, the gateway worked just fine. Have checked the whole tcp/ip side of things on XP; seems to be okay.
