Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Detects But Won't Connect
Jan 2, 2011
My wireless card in my Acer Aspire 7551G shows wireless networks in range but wont connect to any of them. I am running an Atheros AR928x Wireless network card (windows reports it as a AR5b93). Also as a side note, whenever i turn on my computer, my wireless is disabled. However not connecting is my primary problem.

I'm wondering here with my 64-bit 9.10 why my wireless does not seem to work with my Zonet wireless USB adapter. The adapter is working and it detects my network (a WPA) and attempts to connect, and after about 20 seconds or so, I am disconnected.

so my wireless isn't working. My netbook wireless detects the available networks but when I try to connect it doesn't. The box that asks me to put in the password occasionally shows up but it still doesn't load. I even tried re-installing Ubuntu and didn't fix anything.I'm using kernel version 2.6.35-22-generic and

Basically, I just installed Fedora in my desktop (use it on my laptop), and have a big problem, which is that Fedora (13), detects my wireless card (Edimax nMAX EW-7728IN), but when I try to connect to my wireless networks (WEP & WPA) it hangs and asks again for the password. I know the problem isn't from my routers,since I'm right now connected via Fedora 13 in my laptop.

My wireless (Toshiba laptop, 10.04 64 bit) is just hanging when trying to connect. It was working fine but now nothing. My Wireless antennae is on and my other laptop can connect with no problems. I have restarted the router and the laptop twice.

I have recently installed ubuntu 11.04 on my asus eeepc1005hab. And I've had problems with the wifi. I can connect via ethernet, but the wireless won't connect. I can see the connection, but my wifi never connects. I've tried many things but it still won't work.

wlan0 Authentication capabilities :
WPA
WPA2
CIPHER-TKIP
CIPHER-CCMP
Those are my authentication capabilities, obviously. I am using a WEP encryption for my wireless router and according to this, it will not allow me to connect. Is there anyway to allow that? The wireless card works just fine in Windows, even on the same network encryption type. Using a Intel Wireless/Pro 4965 ag. Note* this is my mother's router and whatnot. She won't change it the encryption type.

I installed a Tenda W322P wireless card in my dual-boot PC running both Windows XP and Ubuntu 11.04. The card worked straight out of the box on XP, but does not function correctly under Ubuntu. My apologies for any missing/irrelevant information, I am having to post this from the Windows boot so the Ubuntu settings are not directly available at the same time as internet access.I followed the process detailed here htURL...to install and configure the driver (I believe from reading other sites that this card is the Ralink RT3062 chipset), blacklisted the original RT2860 driver that was in use (couldn't even get the card to scan for wireless networks with the default driver) and restarted the interface.
Since then, sudo iwlist scan can find my wireless router but when I attempt to connect to it, it seems to enter a loop of requesting the WEP key then pausing for a while before re-requesting the key. I know I have the key value correct because it is copied and pasted from the same text file I used to copy and paste into the passkey field on the Windows boot. Attempting to connect to the router using Ubuntu also has the rather unfortunate side-effect of crashing the wireless router, killing off all other device connections until the router has been reset.

I post here wanting to know if it's Possible to run wvdial as soon as linux detects USB modem.I have already installed and done the setting for using wvdial. I can successfully use wvdial command to setup internet connection.But I have only 1 USB modem. When my wife wants to use it for her PC, she disconnects it from my linux machine.What I want to do now is... 1 that when I attatch the USB back to my linux, I'd want it to do "wvdial &" automatically.2 that when linux is rebooted, "wvdial &" done automatically as soon as it detects USB modem.

I am having a little trouble connecting to my wireless network. Running Fedora 10 32 bit.I'm trying to connect to a hidden wireless network. I updated the firmware for my driver but apparantly the driver is still not working. Broadcom has a driver from their website for Linux 32 bit systems. Should I attempt to install it? I read a post where the driver is built into the system kernel. If so I would need to blacklist the one of the drivers. Correct?
[justin@justin ~]$ iwlist scan
lo Interface doesn't support scanning.
eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
wmaster0 Interface doesn't support scanning.

I'm developing an application to monitorize the network interfaces plugged in my PC. I know that wireless interfaces are listed in /proc/net/dev, but I don't know how to identify a cellular NIC.Is there any virtual file in /proc that shows the cellular NICs in the system? Could I identify different cellular NICs looking at /dev/tty?

I am using a laptop with a realtek8139 integrated adapter. When I boot the live cd (Puppy), I go to configure the internet connection, and shows the module for the card has automatically loaded, and I just set it to DHCP and that is all. After installing the os, however, I go to configure the connection, and it tells me that no module has been loaded, so I should manually choose from the list. When I do, it tells me that it failed to load. I have also tried allowing it to probe by loading every possible driver, to no avail. I have reinstalled the os twice, and it does not recognize the adapter, but when I boot live, it works fine. Any reason why it would do this?

I've installed F13 on two Dell E6400 laptops, both with Broadcom BCM4312 wireless cards. After updating them both, I enabled the RPMFusion repos and installed the akmod-ed wireless driver on each (following these instructions: [URL] Wireless works perfectly on one laptop, but doesn't seem to be working on the other. The wl module is activated (shows up in lsmod) and the wireless card is enabled (wlan0 shows up in ifconfig), but Network Manager isn't showing any available networks. For the record, wireless works on both laptops with Ubuntu 9.10 I am going to try cloning the entire drive on the working laptop and sticking it on the dud one.

I do not have any shares setup on my home network so this has never been a big deal to me. My mother finally took enough interest in my operating system to allow me to dual boot 3 of her computers. Everything was up and running like a charm and then she asked "What about connecting to the file server?"
I click on "network" under nautilus and start clicking around - no where in here is the file server that every Windows system on the network can see (5 or so other systems with xp/vista/7 on them - so I know the share works). A small bit of time and some command life foo later I had hunted down and manually mounted the share and added and fstab entry for the drive so my mother would never have to go through that on her own.
That being said - did I do things the hardway here? Can someone please tell me there is an easy method that successfully detects and connects to samba shares without having to resort to CLI? Personally I do not mind doing this, but it is an issue when I am installing Linux for a beginner.

Installed Ubuntu 10.4 Beta on my Asus Eee 901 (the old Windows XP got tired...) Nice install, BTW, but Networking does not work. I have a very run-of-the-mill Linksys wireless router, which uses WPA2 passord authentication on the wireless side. Ubuntu clearly does try to connect, but then asks me for the password again, repeated a few times and then gives up. The SSID is OK (same I use on my Windows machines) and the same for the password, so it must be something Ubuntu does to the password. Bug or operator error?

After playing around with 9.04 for several months and getting used to linux (I have tried several distros but like ubuntu the best), I decided to reinstall to have a clean system. My wireless has been working great using ndiswrapper. Now after re-install and updating the system, here is my problem. The USB Network Adapter is seen and the wireless network is seen but it never connects. It just keeps asking for the passphrase (I have WPA2 Personal turned on). I have tried turning off the wireless security but that doesn't seem to have any effect.
I have done the things I did before to get the wireless connecting - disabling the native driver (which doesn't work at all) as well as the broadcom drivers which seem to interfere with ndiswrapper. I also tried downloading and compiling the ralink native driver (v 2.3.0.0) but that didn't work.Here is the setup:PC with dual core processors running at 2 Ghz3 GB ramUbuntu 9.04Belkin N150 Enhanced Wireless RouterBelkin N150 Enhaced Wireless USB Network Adapter (uses the rt2870 driver.)

I am running Ubuntu 10.04 x86 on my netbook. When I try to connect to the office WLAN I get the usual "%SSID% Connection established" but my network status icon in the panel doesn't change.
I then go online and sometime it works sometimes it doesn't. When it does work it is extremely slow. My first though was maybe it is because the router is set in mixed mode, this wasn't the case as my router at home is mixed mode and works fine. Then I thought maybe its the DNS so I set the DNS address to 8.8.8.8 (googles open DNS server) - same thing, still slow.
Next I thougt it maybe an incombatability between ubuntu and the router, a collegue of mine uses ubuntu also (10.04 x86) and he has exactly the same problem.
When I connect to the router using a cat 5 I get a similar problem, the network status icon changes to connected but the connection is still extremely slow. I know it's not the line because pleanty of other PC's use the same connection and it's fine. Again when we try it on my collegues ubuntu machine its the same thing.
So at the moment I know its not my machine or the DNS or the WLAN

I'm a first time user of ubuntu and I am having huge issues getting my wireless to work. I've tried using the troubleshooting guide, but it says that it's already installed and to go to windows wireless drivers to install the .inf file. Problem is.. I can't find the file anywhere. When I type lspci into the terminal this is what it says: 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN [14e4:4311] (rev 01)

I just took the plunge again and purged Windows 7 from my desktop computer and replaced it with the Lucid Lynx
Now my problem is I was using "Internet Connection Sharing" in Windows 7 to let my laptop and netbook connect to the Internet via wireless. Now I don't have the option of sharing my Internet connection anymore as Ubuntu would require me to have two network interface devices to do this, thus I am trying to make my laptop and netbook connect to the DSL modem via the wireless AP (which is possible in Windows as my wife is doing it right now on her laptop).
How do I go about getting my laptop (running Lucid Lynx) and netbook (Lucid Lynx Netbook Remix) to connect to the DSL modem via a wireless connection?

I installed Ubuntu on my laptop at a friend's house. After installing, I connected perfectly to their wireless network and lived quite happily for a few days. However, when I arrived home and tried to connect to my own network, my computer insisted that it couldn't connect. Although I'm sure I'm entering the right pass key, it keeps asking for the passkey ad nauseum.

Ive just installed ubuntu on an old laptop to bring it back to life after the windows bootup crawl was just annoying me.Installation has gone fine, but the problem Im having is I dont see how to connect the wireless. By router is broadcasting, and on any other machine I can just see the network and connect/enter PW etc. This ubuntu machine doesnt see any wireless networks in the network list. Is there something Im not getting?Ive done nm-tool and it sats my wlan is just disconnected. Am I going to have to enter my network manually?
