Every time I update Ubuntu 10.04 or I install new packages, after a while (about 10-15 MB of dowloaded files) the router goes off-line.I have a 3COM ADSL Wireless 11g Firewall Router and I am connected with a LAN cable (but the same happens when I use the wireless). My laptop is a Dell Studio XPS.I have to restart the router every time, and it works for another 10-15 MB, then it stops again.

I found another thread that told me to type "nm-applet &" into the terminal, which works great. It shows the network manager and auto connects. But as soon as I close the terminal, it auto disconnects. Anyone know why and what I can do to make the network manager icon stay besides keeping the terminal open?

When I connect him to a network (either LAN or Wireless) it stays connected for a few minutes and then Just disconnects (without showing any sign of disconnection except no internet/skype/dropbox). Only way to renew connection is after startup. The network controller is SIS 191 Gigabit Ethernet adapter.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI started an upgrade last night (from Jaunty to Karmic) using a "do-release-upgrade" command on a remote server via ssh. However, this morning, I discovered that the ssh connection between my machine and my server was broken.
I can see that the do-release-upgrade process is still running (well, a giant /usr/bin/dpkg is in the process list) and waiting for a response.
Is there any way I can take control of that session from my current session?
I wish to create aliases to log into a server and go to a specific folder. For example, I have two aliases:
Code:
alias REP1='ssh me@server cd /REP1'
alias REP2='ssh me@server cd /REP2'
and of course, I'm disconnected after cd commands. I found no ssh option which prevents this disconnection to occur. I also tried the following trick:
Code:
ssh me@server "cd /REP; bash -i"
but it left me with a crappy shell (no color, directions keys printing ^]]A, ...)
last night i have fresh installed ubuntu 10.4 on my computer. Then after that, I installed the updates. Lastly, i installed nvidia hardware driver so that i could use its graphical effects. After rebooting my computer, i've noticed that i was disconnected from the internet. And I was surprised that it is the cause of my internet disconnection because when i remove it, my internet comes back. What should I do with this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI replaced the trusty old aironet wireless card with a trendnet scanbus wireless card so I could secure my home wireless with wpa encryption. It uses the ath5k module, and the wireless is set up with wicd. The issue is that if I stop browsing for about 2 minutes, the next time I start to browse, it will disconnect, then reconnect no problem. I don't know if this is supposed to be a feature, but it is sure annoying. Is there a tweak somewhere to stop this? The other option would be to use ndiswrapper and use windows drivers, but I'd rather explore tweaking, if possible. If I have to use ndiswrapper, would I have to rmmod ath5k first, or would it be ok to use ndiswrapper directly?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen my router switches off... the wifi signals go off... then why the hell ubuntu keeps on connecting to that very wifi like hell and when doesnt connect shows the prompt to manually connect... with the wifi key already filled in... whats the use of saving the key when it has to ask the question from me either to connect or not?? and if its isnt available... just wait when its available.. and for the prompt,i have only option to cancel(because wifi isnt available at that moment if i select connect it again tries to connect like hell..which it cant) and if i cancel it wont auto-connect when wifi does get available! what the heck?
Windows has this done the right way... when the wifi isnt available.. it dissconnects silently.. and when it becomes available connects silently.. why isnt this been done this way in ubuntu??
Ive attached an image..one can see in the image that it says "authentication required by wireless network" when there isnt any.. as router has gone down!
And the second thing i want to report is that there is no way to report this bug from ubuntu... the launchpad.net talks of going through bug reporting process which is done against a definite package... now how does a user know which package would be causing this error?? there should be a more clear process of reporting such bugs to ubuntu team... which a common man using ubuntu( ubuntu says its most user friendly of all distros right?) can report..
I have this wired problem with my realtek rtl8101e ethernet. It keeps on disconnecting randomly with my router. My computer is connected to D-link router via LAN cable. This problem does not occur in my windows xp os.

Take this scenario If I have rate limited the connections to 4.(i.e if you attempt 4th connection you wont be able to login for some time.) If in a minute I get disconnected 3 times while I was already logged in on the server with a screen session, will I be able to login or I need to keep quite for a minute?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI updated my Ubuntu version to 10.04 a couple of days back, and everything seemed to be working fine. Then, I switched off my wireless using the wireless switch. Since then, it does not respond to the wireless switch, i.e. nothing I do turns the wireless on again. I checked "Hardware drivers", and it shows a green circle saying that the Broadcom device is recognised and working. Oddly enough, the I can switch the bluetooth on and off my clicking on the panel and choosing the appropriate option. However, the wireless icon is not visible on the panel. I have also tried switching the wireless off and on from the BIOS, but that too has no effect at all.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have enabled SNMP monitoring in my debian box (using apt-get install snmp) and configured it to allow my PC to query the server.
I'm able to query the server and get SNMP data but when I get STG to give me a per/second graph of the interface octets, it only updates the data every 12 seconds or so.
Is this a setting in SNMP which could be causing this problem? If so, how can I enable it so that SNMP can give me up to the second octet rates.

I have no clue what this means.
Due to networking issues within 10.04, I can't connect to the internet to update to 10.10.
I've created an install CD, but want to confirm if I'm doing it right, or how to fix some issues I'm seeing.
First, I get the option to create besides my other OS (Vista and currently 10.04). I've tried to select this option, and it gives 3 options to install:
An SD card I've left in my computer
Sharing my Vista HD
Sharing with 10.04.
The issue is that when I got the computer, I partitioned my second HD (320GB) in half, one that is shared with Vista as a storage dump, the second half Ubuntu (160GB partition).
Currently, using this option forces me to split this half partition between Lucid and Maverick. For some reason, if I try and "use entire partition" the bar shows 2GB as the size of the partition. If I choose use entire HD, it shows the full 320GB. Using the slider can reduce the footprint of Lucid, but can't wipe it out.
Since I haven't screwed around with partitions too much in the last 3 years, I am not too comfortable with using the advanced option, but it seems like the only chance I have to erase 10.04 completely. This is reinforced by it asking about "device for boot loader"
Just wondering if there is a way to update all of my packets on Ubuntu server 10.10 all at once.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I have given up on running slackware on my labtop, beacuse I lack the knowledge on many of the settings and configs in linux.

I have allready downloaded the driver install file for my graphic card.
The thing I am wondering on is this : I am thinking on installing the drivers right after I install 7.10 and after that I am thinking of uppgrading to 9.10 if its possible. And the thing is, will I keep my ATI drivers installed if i update?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently re-installed Ubuntu Karmic on a new PC (about a month or so ago), and I just noticed that my PPAs are not updating when I run the update manager. I'm not a complete noob but I'm not all that hardcore or experienced. Is there something I am doing wrong?
When adding a PPA I open System>Administration> Software Sources and click on the "other software" tab. After clicking "add" I enter the APT line (*eg. ppa:banshee-team/paa)
and hit "add source". I hit close and let it reload and that's it.
This method worked fine for me before but now when I run Update Manager it never shows any updates for the PPAs I have added even though I know there is a newer version of the application available.
