I just upgraded to 11.04 just this morning and I tried to get on the internet. Under the networking thing there is only wired connections. How do I fix this. I have a dell vostro 1000 with a Dell 1390 WLAN mini-card.

got a dell inspirion 15r (i think), and it comes w/ win7 (I HATE Win7) so i made him let me dual-boot with ubuntu maverick meerkat. (he wouldn't let me get rid of win7 cuz thats what his parents use.) It installed successfully, so we booted into it, and there was no wifi networks. I thought it was because wifi was disabled so i press the button i think its F5 but still nothing. I thought it might have been the comp but i booted into win7 (Que the Beethoven's fifth)... and it worked in win7 (thats a first) can someone help me. Oh and i forgot i used that terminal command to unblock wifi

I have no problem connecting to the wifi network at home, and my phone still sees and connects to the campus wifi network, so I think the problem is with my laptop (Gateway T-6345u), which doesn't even detect the campus network. As of last week, it connected automatically, and now it can't even see the network.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy 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 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.
My exact hardware:

I notived the following problems in /var/log/kern.log

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...)

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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I click on the network manager icon next to the date in the upper right corner of my screen, my network connections do not show up. I have added two DSL connections on my laptop (username & password) but it doesn't show up. Everyday I need to use
Code:
sudo pppoeconf
if I wish to connect to the internet.
Both these connections are added in the same way on my Desktop Computer and it shows up on the network manager. One of them is even the default which connects automatically on startup.
Because it's not working I assume network manager is not compatible with my laptop. Are there patches to install or other programs that can easily manage my internet connection?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just bought a new toshiba c655 laptop and had windows 7 on it. i made the dual boot partition on it, yada yada yada, anyway, on the windows partition i can see two networks at my house. one is mine, one is my neighbors. but when i go to the ubuntu side of things not a single wifi network shows up. i did a little combing of the forums and decided to try installing the ndisgtk package which i obviously need internet for. i thought i would plug it into an ethernet cable running straight from the modom and i could connect and download no problem. however. this has turned out to be quite a mistake. ubuntu does not even recognize the fact i have an ethernet cable plugged in. this may or may not be related, but niether my ipod or my cell phone does not show up when i plug those in and when i try to mount them i get an error message that says they could not be found. Im running 10.04.

My Wireless isn't popping up in the network tab. I'm running off of a ethernet cable. I tried reinstalling the drivers using Windows Wireless Drivers, it said it "detected hardware" but it didn't really enable my wireless. I'm on Ubuntu 11.04.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to connect a projector to my laptop (already running) and hit the fn+f7 (the designated button for switching screen), nothing happens. I see "no source found" on projector screen and my laptop screen works perfectly. Now if I restart the laptop with the projector connected, I see all the intial booting messages on the projector screen (not on my laptop), then the gnome login screen appears on both the projector screen and laptop (when the login screen appears on laptop it looks like it has lower resolution than my usual laptop resolution). But immediately after I log in, my laptop screen goes blank, and projector screen becomes the only active screen.
If I restart without the projector, again all normal operation on laptop screen is restored.
I feel like I am missing some very silly options. Any help is appreciated.

I have been using Ubuntu for a couple of days now and I am starting to like it alot. I decided to install it on my laptop, but getting it to connect wireless is becoming a problem. I have been searching all day on how to fix this but nothing so far has helped.I had Windows 7 installed before and it connected fine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI reinstalled ubuntu and now there isn't a box that pops up saying "restricted drivers" where my wireless would pop up saying something like Broadcom STA wireless driver. and Broadcom BZ3 wireless driver (or something like that) I would then click STA wireless driver and click "activate" then it would make my wireless card work.
Why isnt this box popping up? how do I get to it?
Another Ubuntu install, another round of wireless problems. I have a Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop that I used Wubi to install Ubuntu 10.4 on alongside Windows 7 Ultimate. Everything installed perfectly but it's not detecting my wireless network so I therefore have no wireless access. My wireless network icon is gray with a red "!" on it; when I click it I get:
Wired Network
disconnected
Wireless Networks
disconnected
My wireless network does not show up at all; it's not hidden. When I try to enter it manually, I do so and when I click it I immediately get a popup that says
Wireless network
Disconnected - you are now offline.
I only have a wireless connection since the router is in another part of the house, and this is really frustrating me that this stuff doesn't just work on install like OSX and Windows does.
I used to have ettercap on backtrack 4 and everything was ok...But on ubuntu 10.04 I'm having this issue; it is not showing passwords (if i log in for example in a forum with a http link )and not sending false certificate (if i try to log in in https links, after uncommenting the redir ip tables in etter.conf).Other features seems to work alright (such as dns spoofing) and the arp poisonning is succesful. Besides, Wireshark gets the passwords.

But I did a fresh install of Lucid Lynx (desktop edition, that I added some packages to to use as a server). Between the router (wrong ip address?), port forwarding (set right?), my domain nameservers (godaddy) and the DynDNS service I use (for dynamic ip) I must have a wrong setting because, my joomla website shows up at localhost, but not 'out there' so to speak. I would like to get this site out there and working soon, as it's one I'm just doing free for a Community Garden.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have ubuntu 10.10, and at my house I primarily used wired, and it works fine, and under windows earlier today I was able to locate networks, so my wireless card is working. I'm currently at my girlfriends house, and trying to connect to her wireless internet. When I try to connect, I can't find any networks. I've made sure her network has sharing and discovery enabled, however in my wirelss manager it comes up as blank. There's the option to add wireless manually, but do I really need to go through the trouble of finding the routers mac address and all that, it should just show up?I could switch back to windows to see if I can connect, but I'm almost positive it's just the linux wireless manager..
