I have just removed ndiswrapper and installed Realtek RTL819se!! How ever after I restarted I lose my wifi and have to do change directory to use ./wlan0up to get it working again.
Whenever I reboot my server, it looses all network connectivity. It can't see the LAN nor the internet. I have to issue the following:
Code: ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth1 down ifconfig eth1 up
This will get the server talking to the LAN, but still not to the internet. To get that I have to do:
Code: route add default gw 192.168.0.1
Then I'm up and running.
But why?
Granted I only have to reboot now and then (after a power failure, or, like last night where the server was actually heating the house too much on a hot August day) but why is this happening? It is like these settings are temporary and are lost on shutdown.
I ran yum broadcom-wl and installed the driver for my card no problem. I connected to the internet just fine using my wifi thereafter.
When I shut my laptop down and booted sometime later, the wireless connection was gone and I didn't even see a wireless adapter in the networking applet.
I tried to run insmod wl and insmod wl.ko and that failed.
So... after using yum to install the broadcom drivers, how can I make that install 'permanent'; so I don't lose my wireless adapter each time I reboot?
I turned down my txpower with the command: sudo iwconfig wlan0 txpower 3 Which works to fine turn down my broadcast power from the default value of 15 dBm to 3 dBm. But it is reset every time I restart Ubuntu 11.04 to the default value of 15 dBm. How do I save my modified txpower settings so they don't reset after a restart? It is really annoying having to re-enter the command every time I reboot my computer!
I find that I prefer have both panels located at the screen top. That way I don't have to go to the bottom of the screen for one thing, then back to the top for another. I arranged the panel so the regular top one is on top,then the panel that contains the open applications is underneath.The problem is, when I reboot, the panels lose their order. First, the regular top panel initializes, then the bottom ones starts and pushes the first panel down, which becomes what you see in the picture: I would like to find a way to keep them in the opposite order of what you see in the picture, but every time I reboot they end up in that order.
I have a server with two ethernet ports. I configured eth0 to be static, set at 10.1.10.148. I plugged in another router into the other ethernet port in order to configure that router. I configured eth1 to use dhcp. Using /etc/network/interfaces rather than gnome network manager. When I did this, I lost internet connectivity (internet routes through eth0 of course)
- Why did I lose internet connectivity?
In order to recover internet activity, I had to disconnect the new router on eth1 of course, and do sudo ifdown eth1. That wasn't enough however. After rebooting numerous times and pulling out my hair, I finally tried configuring eth0 as dhcp, rather than static, and this fixed the problem.
- Why didn't sudo ifdown eth1 solve the problem? What information was saved between reboots that somehow remembered that I plugged in the new router? Because my thinking was if /etc/network/interfaces was identical, and the network topology was identical, after a reboot everything should be restored, but it wasn't.
If I put my computer into sleep or hibernate, I have no wireless connection when I start up again. I click on the wireless manager in the tray, but wireless is disabled and I can't enable it. This never happened until I updated to Ubuntu 9.10.
I am using the b43 driver (I think), but I'm not sure which command to execute to display information about my wireless card.
I am running ubuntu 10.04 on a dell xps m1530 and when ever i shut the laptop then re open it I am disconnected from my wireless connection. I would love if when I opened it it would just stay connected. Is this possible?
I have a Acer Aspire 7535-5020 laptop with a Atheros AR5B91 wireless adapter & lose my connection after about 10 minutes.The only way to reconnect is by rebooting.I read in another thread that installing the linux-backports-modules-karmic would solve the problem.However when I try to install it I get the message, Error Dependency is notsatisfiable:Linux-backports-Modules-2.6.31-22 generic.
I have an ASUS G50Vt laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 installed on it. I have a WiFi Link 5100 wireless device. I use these settings to connect to it:URL...My problem is, once I connect, within 30 seconds I lose my Internet connection. It goes on and off seemingly whenever it wants. Is there something I'm missing? Some kind of driver issue or something else I need to change?I can connect to the non-secure connections fine, just when I try to use the secure one it craps out. Halp?
I use a Westell 327W dsl modem/router to connect to the internet. I installed Ubuntu 11.04 on two computers. My desktop is connected with ethernet and works perfectly. However, when I connect my laptop with wifi, it causes the router to lose it's internet connection. All connected devices are affected. The only way to fix the problem is to shut off and turn on the router again. This problem only happens with with the laptop and Ubuntu. I use the same laptop with Win7, and it connects fine. I also have no problems connecting my Android phone or PS3 to the router. The wifi in the laptop is an Atheros model.
I have tried no security, WEP, and WAP. The result is the same with all three settings. I can still access the router config from any device 192.168.1.1 after the internet goes out. The DSL led on the router stays on, and the config says the DSL connection is active.
Im having trouble with my hp mini 110, i read abit of information about it on the site and installed a package that gets my wifi working, problem being is that as soon as I go upstairs i lose connection, its not really upstairs if I move more than 5 feet away from my router no internet although the laptop reads full signal.
I believe its a problem with the broadcom drivers, is there anyway to resolve this or do I have to go back to Windows 7 because I really dont wanna do that.
I have an internal domain (dev.lan) for which my Ubuntu server is authoritative. We have a number of subdomains under that domain (test.dev.lan, svn.dev.lan, etc.). The server also acts as the primary DNS server for my office. It was originally set up under Ubuntu 8 and worked great.
However, ever since we upgraded to Ubuntu 10, our Windows clients periodically lose the ability to resolve domains on the dev.lan domain. Internal IP addresses can still be pinged from the Windows machines so it does not appear to be a network-connectivity issue. External domain names continue to resolve without any problems. The only workaround is to restart networking on the Windows clients. It's frustrating because it happens several times a day.
my bcm 4312 wifi card gets disabled after each reboot, now that ive installed compat-wireless patched for mac 80211 frag attack... in order to get my wifi card fired up again i have to browse tom my compat-wireless source folder in /home/user/Downloads/compat-wireless and issue the commands sudo make wlunload and then reload my wifi driver via sudo modprobe b43. is there any way to fix this problem? or furhter troubleshoot here is what dmesg says on boot:
Code:
[ 22.425475] b43: disagrees about version of symbol ssb_device_is_enabled [ 22.425481] b43: Unknown symbol ssb_device_is_enabled (err -22) [ 22.432766] b43: disagrees about version of symbol ssb_pmu_set_ldo_paref
After having my usb wifi adapters working fine for some time, they stopped working and I can not get network connectivity.
Some one else was using my box and they reported seeing a kernel panic and then rebooted the box. Now there is no connectivity through the wifi interfaces.
I have seen the kernel panics related to this driver before, but usually a reboot has no ill effect.
My laptop has an internal wireless device and a button to turn it on/off, but since it has bad reception I use an external USB wireless adapter.The problem is that if I turn the internal wireless device off using the button, it also turns the USB wireless adapter off.Is there anyway to use the killswitch (the button) only for the internal wireless device?This only started to happen in Ubuntu 10.04.
I have only had a few weeks worth of experience with linux, so I'm probably considered a newbie at this but I felt like giving it a shot. I just configured my new Toshiba Satellite A505-S6969 to jaunty. Most of the transition is going well but I'm stuck with a few issues, one of which is getting my wifi to work. Right now I'm working off of an ethernet cable.spci returns

I have a pc which has 2 network cards, 1 wifi and 1 ethernet card.
I'm using wifi card to connect to wifi network (internet) and i'm planing to share this wifi/internet connection via ethernet to wireless router (siemens sx763) so i can have internet on my other devices, e.g. mobile phone, laptop.
I am running (K)Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 64bit on a Dell Latitude E6400, WiFi Card Intel 5100. Never had any problems with networking. Up to about 2 weeks ago. I do realize there have been quite a few posts with this network adaptor, but non really described the problem I have here.
What happens is that suddenly the WiFi LED on the computer stops blinking, the WiFi connection gets disrupted, and the device is not recognized anymore when checking ifconfig. Only cold restarting the machine helps then... it will work for a while (between 1 and 20 minutes) and then crash again.
On Windows 7 the card works perfectly fine. With Ubuntu 11.04 in Live CD mode I have the same effects (connection crashes after a while). Also tried booting an older kernel, no success.

I notived the following problems in /var/log/kern.log
I am losing network bandwidth and I am quite frankly I am not sure why, I don't have allot memory 495.6Mib
But I clean my PC every few days "BleachBit"
I have read some where on the magazine Network receiving suppose to be higher. so how can I fix this issue please i am having allot problems, u use cable from Comcast
I am not quite sure what Information you might need from me to give.
I have 2 connections, wlan and wired, and I'd want to have a few websites (in my browser) to connect through the wireless connection while other go through the wired rj45 connection. s it possible? (without unplugging the rj45 cable...)
the only error message I can find comes from "dmesg|tail"all it shows is "no IPv6 router"any body know what is going on here or where where to look for more clues the next time I get around public wifi Oh the windoze washers and apple polishers don't seem to have any problems at all
I have an old PowerBook G4 that I would like to use as a 'dummy' computer for learning wireless penetration (WEP/WPA attacks) more effectively. I had been using a wireless router, but I gave it away I can use Mac OS X to share an ethernet connection over wifi, but this is _very_ un-configurable. You get two options only, WEP and a key-length. So, I would like to install someway to make this wireless connection more configurable.
I am an Apple user who ended up buying a netbook with XP installed on it. I got the Acer Aspire One zg5 refurb, because it was super cheap. Problem is, I noticed I hate the Windows experience and I would like to have something similar to Mac in this computer, and I've had some casual experience with linux before (through a live CD that a friend gave me). However, I need to keep the XP running on this thing because I need it for work. The main use that I have this netbook for is to take up notes, do some light music/video editing (for which I have to admit XP has been strangely okayish), listen to music, browse the web, among other things. I would like to install Linux in this because it offers great tools for these functions, and I need to have those on the run. So I thought I would try to double-boot this computer with XP and Ubuntu, but I am sort of a beginner on this aspect.
My questions are what follows: If I use the GParted that comes with the Ubuntu 10.04 installation disk, will I lose the data that I have already stored on this PC? If my computer isn't able to give the needed resolution to run Ubuntu, would it still run OK in the netbook? Will my computer run OK if I make it double-boot? Would it be too much of a hassle for its Atom processor to do this? I would like to install some of the apps that come with the Ubuntu Studio version if I can make the system double-boot. Is this possible? Can I customize the desktop version of ubuntu to give me some ot her color for the taskbar instead of the blackish gray that is set by default?
I have installed latest Nvidia driver from the official website i had no problem installing it ( i stopped gdm installed the driver and then restarted gdm ) but the problem is that each time i reboot my ubuntu 10.04 i lose the graphic configurations and i have just to reinstall the Nvidia Driver to make 3d acceleration enabled how can i solve this by installing the driver once and for all
