Ubuntu Networking :: LAN Card RTL8139 "etho" Is Unable To Work?
Jun 23, 2010
I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on my Compaq 767TU notebook. Everything is working fine except "Realtek RTL8139 PCI adapter". Although it is showing up in device list and installed but the LAN link indicator lights are off. No communication is possible with dhcp.
I have installed 9.04 ( I currently have it on dual boot with Windows XP) and my problem is that I have no internet connection. I have a Motorola modem with a Realtek RTL8139 Family Fast Ethernet NIC network card ( it's a wired connection, btw) When I plug in the cable, there's a little animation, but after a while I get the message: Wired connection is not active (or something like that) Here's what I did so far:
1) I ticked the Wake-On-Lan option in XP, since I read it in the forums that I could solve my problem. It did not
2) I turned off my modem, rebooted my system.
3) I deleted the Auto Ethernet network, and plugged in the cable again...no use.
4) I did an ifconfig, since I know that is what you guys really want
evajulia@Derek:~$ ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:18:f3:ab:2b:3a inet6 addr: fe80::218:f3ff:feab:2b3a/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
I got a problem about network proxy setting. With the graphics setting interface, I set auto proxy with the URL address but it is weird that the setting only work with eth1(wireless), doesn't work with etho(wired). however my wireless driver is always a problem for Linux. i also tried export http_proxy= XXXXX:8080 it still doesn't work at all.
I'm not able to set up eth0 with a static ip adress.service network restart and it was okkay but when I try to turn off and turn on, the ip adress is set up with dhcp.
My onboard lan card was cutting out during samba file transfers so I put in a PCI lan card and disabled the integrated one. Now I'm having trouble getting it to work. I appologize in advance, I'm completely ignorant as to how to change net cards in Ubuntu and am quite new to Linux in general.I'd copy and paste my lspci, but I can't connect to that computer nor the internet with it now.
Just installed win7 next to ubuntu 10.10. on a newly purchased Dell inspiron N5030. Win 7 wire and wireless both work. In ubuntu , my wireless works. but cannot get the wire to work.I just ran ifconfig and found out i have nothing in the ethO at all.How do i put it in.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Server. I can't get my Wireless Card & Wired Card to work at the same time. My interfaces file is incorrect, when I comment out 1 of the interfaces the other works. I have attached my interfaces file.
Cannot activate network device eth0!" device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization". i cannot find my network card while i set up network configuration
I can't seem to get my card reader to work. The USB port on the reader works and sometimes I can read my SD card. Usually, nothing shows up in the media/ folder. I looked at this write-up [URL]... but I'm not sure if this is what I should do. Here are some info I was able to pull up:
I've brought a friend over to linux from windows. He has some how deleted his "Wired Etho" connection. He said his computer would not shut down(Mint Linux 9), so he unplugged it. You guessed it right after restarting no internet. After checking under "Network Connection" his wired connection is gone. My question is? How to reconfigure a "Wired Etho" connection? He has a dsl connection running a Linksys router(sorry I don't know the model number). I have only talked with him on the phone, so I have not personally checked the system out. I just finished working on it this past sunday and everything was fine.
I have been messing around with ubuntu for a few hours now trying to get my wireless driver to work, but I am having no luck. It seems like I installed the driver right, and network-admin use to show the wireless, but I couldn't unlock it to mess with properties. Now it doesn't even show wireless, and I still can't unlock it, so I'm unable to get my wireless card to work.
I have a Dell inspiron E1705 that I recently installed 10.04 LTS on. The wireless card i'm using is a Belkin express card that worked perfectly fine with 9.1 but won't work with 10.04. lspci -v output shows the card as installed with a driver listed but under capabilities is says "access denied".
I've just loaded ubuntu to give my old laptop a new leece of life. Everything is fine expect that I can't get the wireless card to work. It just doesn't seem to be exist on my computer anymore. The computer has a button to turn wireless on and off, which worked when it was a windows system, but doesn't seem to do anything anymore. I'm an absolute ubuntu beginner.
I know some wireless card can work in Master Mode but it seems use madwifi driver. I know madwifi doesn't support usb dongles find a usb wireless card which can work as AP under Ubuntu. I have check this list [URL] I am not sure if ar9170usb.ko and its device support Master MOde.
I have used Ubuntu without trouble for quite some time now on my computer (maybe 2 years; recently upgraded to 10.04) and have just bought a new computer for the office. When I install 10.04 on the new computer it doesn't seem to recognise the lan card, an atheros AR8151 onboard card (on a GA-G41MT-S2 mobo).
p.s. phrases such as 'build-essentials', 'sudo' and '.tar.gz' files don't mean anything to me (except the last is a bit like a zip file I think).

I have installed Ubuntu 11.04 and for several days have tried many, many different ways of installing my Linksys WPC 11 wireless card into my IBM Thinkpad T30 laptop.
I have got the wireless working by installing Ubuntu 8 and then upgrading to the current version, and I would assume some drivers are currently installed.
As usual though, the signal drops out after only a few minutes and I have to keep re-booting the laptop to continue what I'm doing.
I have just installed a generic PCI ethernet card into a fairly low powered system (Celeron 766MHZ, 512mb Ram, 40 Gb HDD, Generic sound and video). The card came with no drivers. I have since installed Ubuntu 9.10, and up to a point everything is fine and looks great. However when I connect an ethernet cable up to the PCI card (in the hope of connecting with the Internet), nothing happens. I am thinking that I need Ubuntu drivers for the PCI card ? or does Ubuntu 9.10 come with drivers and I need to go into the 'engine room' to sort it all out ?
I am using Linux Mint 9 Gnome: Isadora (since the same Network Manager applet is used in Ubuntu, I am asking the question here too)I was trying to configure my wireless card to connect my PPPoE connection by using the command pppoeconf wlan0 and also pppoeconf.I was not able to dial my PPPoE connection when connected via Wi-Fi. When I restarted my system, in the Network Manager, under Wireless Networks it says "Device not managed". Now I am not able to use my Wi-Fi card at all and cant connect to my Wi-Fi modem.
There is no hardware Wi-Fi switch, only the key combination Fn+F2 to enable or disable the wireless card.I have used the key combination Fn+F2 (which enables or disables the Wi-Fi card) many a times, but the same thing is displayed in the network manager.If I use LiveCD mode and use any distro even Isadora, the Wi-Fi works fine.My ethernet connection is working fine. I can connect to the internet if I connect my modem using Ethernet port.
The graphical option through the hardware drivers list 2 options, broadcom b43 wireless driver and the broadcom sta wireless driver None can be activated
The b43 displays: Sorry, installation of this driver failed.
Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log
I have been searching through these forums the past couple of day as I have just installed Ubuntu 9.10 64bit on my custom whitebox. I have had windows 7 on it in the past, but want something different now.
I guess my main question is if anyone knows a simple to install wireless card (pci or usb) for ubuntu 9.10 64. I currently have the Netgear WG311V3 PCI card installed, but I can not for the life of me get it to work under Ubuntu. I have tried numerous different methods from search google, these posts, etc. but I can not get any of them to work.
Since my recent re-conversion into Ubuntu, I noticed Network-Manager now has mobile broadband support out of the box. Splendid!
I've been using my Huawei (Vodafone) modem since around two weeks, and so far it's been great, except for a little detail: sometimes, them modem simply won't work. I plug it in, "cd" drive (where the Vodafone Mobile Connect files are) shows up, but no "Vodafone" on Network-Manager. I believe this has something to do with settings the modem may leave behind after each use, but I'm quite newb, so.
I have looked for information regarding this card. I have tried to install it using ndisgtk and ndiswrapper. I have the green light on the card but it won't work. When I have tried using ndiswrapper to install this card, I can get the driver to install but then the instructions say to type the following line which I do, but then it gives me an error message:
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
The error message is:
WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release. WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release.
I just bought a USB thumbdrive and I installed Ubuntu on it. I want Ubuntu to connect to the internet with virtually any computer that boots from the USB. Is there a single package that will install drivers for nearly every wireless card there is so that I can connect to the internet with out a hassle?
I noticed that the Linux Mint website lists support for more wireless cards as a feature and I am curious whether I can do this for the Ubuntu on my thumbdrive.
I have a Toshiba Satellite series laptop, i get ubuntu on it, all works well but there's a problem, my wireless card doesn't work, it doesn't show me the aviable wireless network, my Wireless Card is an Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10) but it works in windows. I used Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS. When i run these codes that's what it shows:
I really don't know what I'm doing. I know how to use the command line (though, I'm not often sure EXACTLY what I'm doing with it), I know basically what sudo is. Beyond that I'm pretty lost if you were to ask me to explain any of linux/ubuntu/unix/etc...However. I'm good at following instructions.I have an ancient Toshiba Satellite 1415 laptop.
I've installed Lucid via PXE (see above RE: non-functioning optical disc drive). It was a hassle to do so, but since I've not been able to get this laptop to boot from a usb drive, it seemed the way to go. However, the PXE setup process is not exactly straightforward; therefore I THINK I installed it correctly because most everything else works fine, but I really have no way of knowing.
More preliminaries: As the built-in wireless card in the Laptop has been dead for longer than I care to remember, I'm attempting to use a PCMCIA D-Link DWL-650+ (not a 650 or a 650G or a 650G+) which says that it's supposed to work "out of the box" with the ACX100 driver.
lspci returns the line:
Code: 05:00.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 100 22Mbps Wireless Interface ifconfig returns info on "eth0" and "lo", the ethernet, and loopback interfaces respectively.It makes no mention of a wlan0 interface.iwconfig reports (correctly) that eth0 and lo have no wireless extentions.[code]..;;
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS. Kernel/architecture is 2.6.32-25-generic i686.This laptop ancient and cheap,so it's definitely 32bit.I've tried following various tutorials for getting an ACX100 based-card to work, but keep running into errors that the tutorial doesn't cover.The main problem seems to be that almost all the info out there is out-dated by about 2 years.The ACX100 project's Wiki at TheSourceForge states, "Ubuntu 9.10 deprecated linux-restricted-modules in favor of DKMS.
I have an issue with wireless connectivity on my laptop. Its a HP dm3 and the intel network adapter is supported as I can scan and detect wireless access points.However, when I attempt to connect to my home network, it fails and this is probably a result of two things: The BSSID is missing and/or the DHCP client ID is missing.I am running Kubuntu 10.10 32 bit
Yes, that's correct, it's a Celeron 400 running Xubuntu. And the card was working on 9.10, but not working anymore in 10.04 neither in 10.10.I've no other idea and I'm really considering moving back to 9.10Is there anything else I can check.
