Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Get NetGear Wireless Card To Work?
Mar 14, 2011
System: HP Vectra VL Ubuntu Version: 8.10,
lsusb Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0846:9020 NetGear, Inc. Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub,iwconfig lo no wireless extensions.
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.
i can't get my wg111t netgear wireless adapter to work. I followed the help thing by installing ndisgtk, which installed successfully. I was able to load up the file on the cd that also the help page said. The problem is that the computer won't load up the adapter as it would load up my cd's and flash drive. Here's how i installed ndisgtk. I installed the files ndiswrapper_common, ndiswrapper_1.9, and then the ndisgtk_0.8.5.All of these were for i386.
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.
Ever single thread i have read about this network card and trying to get it to work with Xubuntu has not worked for nothing. I got the NDISwrapper install and what not and a driver but nothing is working. i have no idea what to do i cant get the card to turn on or scan or anything.
Will the Netgear WPN111 wireless adapter work with Ubuntu 10.10? If so what action is required to get connected with it running Ubuntu 10.10. The adapter works with Windows XP.
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 already have a wifi card- the netgear wg311v3. that had almost NO linux compatibility, so I won't make the mistake of buying any old wifi card again. What I want to know is, what's a good wifi card for Linux. Here are some requirements I have for it:
Preferably 802.11n support, but I could settle for "G" Out of the box support. As in, I don't have to use Ndiswrapper. Just pop it in, and let ubuntu do the rest I would prefer a USB based dongle, but PCI would be good too. I don't have any brand preferece.
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 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 a problem with Netgear Wireless WG311v3 card and it is not listed in "ifconfig -a". Network Manager does not see the Netgear card either, just eth0 the onboard wired NIC. Here is the result of lspci.
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 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.
I been having trouble getting my rt2070 wireless usb card to work on my desktop. I am using Ubuntu 10.10.

Pastebin of dmesg: [URL]
Code: Representative portion in case pastebin wipes this entry: [ 234.984025] hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 8. Maybe the USB cable is bad? [ 234.984041] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 8
My laptop is an Amilo a1650 on which I've very recently installed Ubuntu 9.10. It's worked out fine so far, except that I can't get the wireless card to work. It's an internal Broadcom BCM4318. Where do I start with configuring it?
I can't get my wireless card to work. I downloaded a broadcom driver for it and i do believe its the right one, but its not helped. I'm running mint 8. The information on my internal wireless card i got using the terminal is:
lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 760/M760 Host (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SG86C202 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS963 [MuTIOL Media IO] (rev 25) 00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS961/2 SMBus Controller 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] [Code]....
I'm trying to activate a wireless network on an ubuntu server 10.04. The machine has a TPLink PCI wireless card. Card is well recognized, and scanning for wireless connection it finds correctly the essid of the access point in the room. But when I try:
Code: $ sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "apoint" key s:my_key_8 this error is returned: Code: Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.I looked for similar situations over many forums, and I found that it could be the card doesn't support the encryption type (My AP uses WPA with TKIP). However if I use an ubuntu desktop live CD on the same machine, I can connect witouth any problem with NetworkManager 0.8.
I have been trying to find a wireless card that will readily work with Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop. Preferably an +802.11 N with an indoor range of between 300 to 400 ft. with possibly two antennas. Am finding many that say linux on the box but find that it ain't so. Also most times with no instructions or very convoluted process that results in errors.
I have 10.04 lucid installed on a presario 2800t laptop(it's old and hasn't got much memory). Anyway, now I can't get my Netgear WNA1100 to work. I know it works right away with 11.04, but that isn't really an option for me. It's too slow on this old computer. get it working with 10.04?
My wireless disconnects after around 10 minutes. It does not reconnect automatically. I've to pull out the usb dongle and then put it back in to connect again.
I'm running Slakware 13 (kernel 2.6.29.6) on a inspiron 1525. I use ndiswarper to use the BCM4312 wireless device without any problem but the fact that the driver does not support the Monitor mode. I therefore bought a NetGear WN111 v2 usb stick but I can't get the linux driver.
Even ndiswarper does not work but it's may be because I don't have the right .sys .ins files. (just to try)
So, I wonder if someone has already successfully manged this device working on Slackware 13?
Actually, I don't know if we can make lets say wlan0 and wlan1 working at the same time. I've try many drivers mentioned on Ubuntu forums but none of theme work with me.
Many people talk about wpa_supplicant but I don't know if I really need it to make my wn111v2 working. And what is a firmware?
