Ubuntu Networking :: No Option For Wireless Connections?

May 31, 2011

I own an hp dv9000 laptop, it comes with a Broadcom STA Wireless card... I currently have my laptop connected to the internet through a wired connection, but there is no option at all for wireless.I've already installed the Additional Drivers to install the Broadcom STA Wireless Drivers, and after I reset, there was no difference, no option to choose wireless instead.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Connections Not Found

Nov 10, 2010

I have an Acer AspireOne D255 netbook. I just installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.10 and it looks pretty sweet.Right now, I'm on a wired connection. It's not detecting any networks, and I know at least my home wifi should show up (and usually we can get onto our neighbors!)I used to have a different model of an AspireOne (I think it was 531h but I'm not 100% sure) with UNR 10.04, and my network was detected right out of the box.

This reminds me of when I installed the desktop version of 10.04 on my iMac. I couldn't bring the wired connection to the room it was in, and my wifi didn't show up on it. I just gave up because I like my Mac so it wasn't a *huge* deal. but I definitely don't want to use this stupid Windows 7 Starter that comes on this netbook!

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless N Dropped Connections

Jul 4, 2011

I'm working right now with ubuntu 11.04 on my asus ul30vt-x1, my wireless n network is working on a linksys e3000 router, my issue is basically with long file transfers. When the issue started i was reaching speeds of 100 Mbps through my wireless network even when I'm connected at 150 Mbps. However when at this speed, I don't know why, the connection is dropped after some minutes or even seconds. I made some testing on windows, I'm reaching 70 Mbps there and no problem at all with dropping the connection.

So my conclusion is that for some reason the linux driver, in my case, is not able to handle such speed of 100 Mbps. I know that a wireless network will have a throughput of aprox 60% the wireless speed. Right now im trying to apply traffic shapping to my transfers so i can get 70 to 80 Mbps, its being working so far.

Ubuntu Networking :: How To Backup Learned Wireless Connections

Aug 25, 2010

So my machine is doing a bunch of strange things and I want to reload it. But I would like to save some of my settings, the most important of which to me is the wireless networks that I've configured from all my customer sites. There are A LOT of them, and I don't remember all of the settings so it would be nice to migrate those to my new install without having to redo them one by one when I arrive at a customer site.

Ubuntu Networking :: Lost Both Wired & Wireless Connections ?

Dec 10, 2010

Running Ubuntu 10.10 on a Dell 710m. Fresh install of OS yesterday. Initially I had wired connection but no wireless. So I started chasing threads & trying different downloads & commands [WITHOUT KNOWING essentially what I was doing; throw your rocks at me HERE] & now I have lost the wired connection also.

Also:
[a] If I go into System > Administration > Additional Drivers, I get "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."

[b] As far as being able to copy a downloaded driver [using a working M$oft machine with net connection] onto an SD card & transferring that driver to the Dell laptop, I have tried formatting 3 different SD cards with the Dell, & each time I come up with various failure errors--& I have no idea why something as simple as formatting an SD card isn't working.

Ubuntu Networking :: Automatic Wireless Connections Undesirable

Jan 25, 2011

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to change the behavior of Network Manager, so that it will only automatically connect to certain wireless networks which I specify, and not automatically connect to others I may have previously used. For example, there are a lot of wifi networks called "linksys", and I don't want the program to automatically try to connect to whichever one it finds.If someone can tell me in which file(s) the list of these connections is stored, I might be able to write a script which will edit that list on startup.

Ubuntu Networking :: Doesn't Seem To Detect Wireless Connections?

Apr 22, 2011

i'm using a dell n5010 recently i installed ubuntu9.10 in my laptop and it doesn't seem to detect wireless connections, so, i googled it and downloaded a driver from broadcom and tried to install it as per the authors instructions and nothing seems to work well, the broadcom drivers are not detected in the additional drivers and when i try to install linux-wlan-ng tarballs it doesn't seem to work even, though i have gcc(i think thats it), so, i installed my windows driver through nsdgtk but it says that it is "unable to see if hardware is present" but, when i click ok on the error the wireless network applet says the hardware is present and when i click the network configuration tool it gives the error message "could not find a network configuration tool" and after configuring my network with network tools in administration it says "no wireless extensions" when i type 'iwconfig' and there is no ip address when i type "ipconfig".

Fedora Networking :: How To Bridge Wired And Wireless Connections

May 29, 2009

My current network setup at home is all wired, and that's worked for me so far. Now I want to set up a wireless connection on my Linux box that I can connect to with both my laptop and my Nintendo DS. I'd like to be able to host a wireless network from the Linux box, connect to it with some other wireless device, and have the wireless device communicate with the router, the internet, and other computers on the wired network. I have the wired network set up (statically configured) as eth0. Other network adapters present on the system are eth1 (not in use) and wlan0, wlan1, and wlan2 (identical cards, remnants from the last time I experimented with wireless).

So I guess my question comes in two parts:
1) How do I set up wlan0 such that it can host? Is Ad-hoc mode okay for this, or do I need to set it up in Master mode?
2) How do I forward connections between the wireless net and the router?
Note that I will be using WEP, as it is all that the NDS supports. I'd like to set up MAC filtering as well, but not until after I get something that works.

Networking :: Multiple Network Connections - Internal And Wireless

Dec 4, 2008

What I want is quite simple, I have my PC running Linux Mint 5 (Elyssa), and I would like to connect it to both an internal network, which has a file/print server, another machine and will soon host a small cluster. I also have a wireless router connected to the tinterweb.

The thing is using my ethernet I want to connect to the internal network whilst simultaneously using my wireless to deal with the internet, I want to keep the internal network off the net as it really doesn't need to be connected. I can connect to my internal quite happily and also my wireless but not both at once.

Fedora Networking :: No Wireless Connections In NM After Installing Nvidia Drivers?

Jun 29, 2009

I installed Nvidia drivers according to the post in HowTos section. It downloaded a different version of the existing kernel, i guess. And the kernel using which I downloaded, when shows up GUI, looks like a Safe Mode of Windows. So I boot the kernel that it downloaded. And there the problem is that in Network Manager applet, it doesn't show me the wireless connections. It doesn't even show the Enable Wireless checkbox upon right clicking it. How to get it back?

Networking :: Wireless Is Flakey -- Dropped Connections, Poor Speed?

Jun 15, 2010

My wireless is flakey -- dropped connections, poor speed, etc. As diagnosis, I loaded the 'wavemon' utility so that I might watch the radio and signal and noise.Things will be good, then fall off, then get better, then go away entirely. Repeat continuously and randomly. For these experiments, my laptops -- more than one -- are on a table.The table is roughly 15-20 ft laterally from the access point. The access point is also 8 ft above the floor vs. 3 ft table height.(grin) While the signal "wobbles" everything else is mechanically stable and otherwise not moving.

Ubuntu Networking :: No WPA Option During Wireless Connection?

Aug 10, 2010

I have a BCM4312 wireless card, using the B43 drivers. It works perfectly fine, except when I bought a new Buffalo Router. I set up the wireless security to be WPA2, but when I use my laptop to connect, the only options are WEP 40/128 key, WEP 128 bit passphrase, LEAP and Dynamic. No WPA of any kind. When I go to edit the wireless settings, I can change the security to WPA2 but when I try to connect again, the wireless manager simply creates another wireless profile with the exact same name with the security WEP. What do I do about this stubborn wireless manager?

Ubuntu Networking :: Enable Wireless Bridge - No Corresponding Option

Mar 24, 2010

I want to create the following network:
I have a Belkin 54g ADSL Router/Modem connected to ADSL
I connect my laptop (Ubuntu 8.04) wirelessly to this router
I have a Netgear DGN2000 Router/Modem with NO connection to ADSL
I connect my desktop to the Netgear using a wired connection
I want to bridge the two routers and use the internet on the desktop

The Belkin 54g Router setup has options for Wireless Bridge.. I have selected "Enable Wireless Bridging"; as far as I can tell there is no corresponding option in the Netgear DGN2000's settings to act as a wireless bridge. I have changed the ESSID, Security, and Channel all to the same settings and when I turn on the Netgear router the signal strength of the network dramatically increases. I am unsure whether this is the "Bridge" connected... or if the Netgear's signal is just drowning out the Belkin's signal. In any case I cannot use the internet when connected to the network with the Netgear turned on. What do I do?

Or is there some way I can share internet like this:
wireless wired
ADSL--->Belkin54g----------->Laptop-------------->Desktop

Fedora Networking :: Use Wireless-Assistant 0.5.7 There's No Connection - AP Logs Show Numerous Connections And Disconnections

Jun 20, 2009

I'm trying to get wireless working in F10. Using pci wireless card with Atheros chipset. To be sure, I tested this hardware with a PCLinuxOS Live CD. Connects to AP perfectly.

Hardware drivers seem all OK in F10, and ifconfig shows wlan0 as expected. When I use the Wireless-Assistant 0.5.7 there's no connection.

Actually, the AP logs show numerous connections and disconnections.

Preferring CLI, I'm using a drop-dead simple wpa_supplicant.conf as follows :

Ubuntu Networking :: Lucid Does Not Store The State Of The Enable Wireless Option?

May 29, 2010

I am using Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04)I have a wireless card in my PC that I only use very occasionally so I uncheck the Enable Wireless option on the network tool icon to stop the system attempting to connect to my wireless network. That works fine for that session, but the system does not seem to remember this setting and attempts to connect the wireless each time I log in! Is this a feature or a bug? and does anyone know a way of defaulting the wireless option to off

Fedora Networking :: Option To Connect To Wireless Network Not Appearing?

Sep 4, 2011

running Fedora 15 on a Dell Inspiron 1521. When I first installed Fedora on this laptop, I was unable to connect to a wireless network because I did not have the firmware installed, so being a good little enthusiastic new user of Fedora, I set out on a quest to locate the proper firmware. I had success on that front, however, in the process of installing it, the option to connect to any wireless network disappeared. It isn't that there is no wireless network in range, rather, the entire wireless option itself has vanished.

Ubuntu Networking :: IBM ThinkPad T60 Ubuntu 10.4 LTS Wireless Connections?

Jan 12, 2011

I recently installed ubuntu 10.4 LTS on my IBM T60 ThinkPad, (Love Ubuntu! Will Never go back to Windows)

But now the problem is as followed.: When i'm at work where they have an open (Non protected) WiFi spot i have no problems connecting at all. But as soon as i'm at home or with friends which have WEP/WPA/WPA2 encrypted routers it is impossible to connect, to none of them. not Linksys, not Dlink not Thomsom, simply none. For days i've been hunting the internet for information about this problem but it is impossible for me to find the solution. I've read the Wireless troubleshooting manual from Ubuntu and did all the checks and tests and everything seems fine. The card is an Intel 3945ABG, and in the new Linux Kernels its already pre-installed. It's so frustrating not beeing able to use the internet in a proper way..

Note:

I installed wireshark to experiment at my workplace but its finding nothing at all even though its connected to the internet/LAN Etherape works fine though.

OpenSUSE Wireless :: NetworkManager Only Shows VPN Tab But No Wireless Or Wired Connections

May 31, 2011

I remember that I did configure my desktop PC for wired and wireless connections since openSUSE 11.2, 11.3 and 11.4. Currently I have openSUSE11.4 x86_64 KDE. Today I happen to notice that the icon for NetworkManager in the taskbar has been replaced with a red X. I discovered that Network Manager only shows VPN tab, whereas Wired and Wireless tabs are greyed out. The strange thing is I still have Internet connection with the CAT5 cable being plugged in. I can still configure wired and wireless connections via YAST but I cannot fix Network Manager settings.

Ubuntu Networking :: No "enable Wireless" Option?

I'm running 11.04 on a Compaq presario CQ56. The network dropdown menu doesn't even show "Enable wireless" as an option, which makes me think that the wireless card's driver and/or firmware isn't installed. The network card is a Ralink, but I can't figure out which model/chipset
