I'm running Ubuntu 10.04LTS 64bit. The desktop running it does not connect to my router or the internet. My mac laptop does. When I installed windows on this desktop, it too could connect. But after reinstalling ubuntu, I cannot. I tried upgrading to the latest ubuntu, but that just bricks my computer. Here is my ifconfig:
Code:
~$ ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1d:09:95:39:76
inet6 addr: fe80::21d:9ff:fe95:3976/64 Scope:Link

I am trying to setup a dhcp server for my internal network. I have two NICs, a modem, and a wireless router. I have my server connected directly to my modem which is providing me with Internet access on eth1 and is working fine. I have dhcp and dns setup on eth0 which is connected to my router. The router shows that it is connected to the Internet but when the router gives a client computer an IP address, the client is unable to connect to the Internet but can connect to the router. I will post my configuration files below with my current configuration.
I have had a router die on me and have bought another (maybe a bad buy!) The new router is Linksys WAG120n. Ethernet is fine. Laptop wireless adapter is Atheros AR5009 802 11a/g/n. I have setup a wireless connection but it is not connecting to it. I have checked the router settings and these seem to be OK! I'll try to give any details required.
Firstly, the actual problem I'm having is that when I start my computer (netbook) up in the morning and try to connect to the router (wirelessly) it just... doesn't work. I've used it before, at full signal strength, and it was completely fine. It never disconnects me or anything - but if I shut down my computer, like I do overnight, when I start it up again often it's hardly getting a signal at all (or so it says) and when it tries to connect it makes the connecting animation and occasionally flashes to a circular thing like firefox's loading animation. Eventually it just fails.
I try restarting my computer, but it doesn't seem to help. The last time, I had to wait until the signal looked "full" again, then delete the settings in "edit connections" for that router and only then would it let me log in again, even though I was using the same password from the same computer (even in the same place). That only seems to help when the connection looks "full" though, and even then, not always. Normally I'd try resetting the router, but I can't because it's locked in the next room (I rent a room here and the guy with the key is rarely around) but honestly I don't think the router is causing this, for a few reasons:............
Ubuntu 9.10 comes with rt2870, the driver for my Zonet ZEW2545, and I have had to blacklist rt2800usb in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf in order for rt2870 to work. My network adapter is able to attempt to connect to my router, but after 10-40 seconds it tells me I am disconnected again. This adapter works fine on windows.
I have just installed ubuntu 10.04 using the wubi installer to dual-boot my machine. Under ubuntu, I am not able to connect to the internet or my router. Everything works fine under windows. I have tried to find relevant information in the forums, but nothing seems to work for me. I have tried disabling ipv6, setting a static ip, but no go. ifconfig shows no IP, dhclient results in no DHCP offers and pinging my router's IP results in Network is Unreachable.
I have a desktop PC running Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7, and a Eee PC 701 laptop running EasyPeasy Ubuntu 9.04. I'd like to connect the desktop to the laptop with a wired connection (eth0), then the laptop to my ADSL router using wireless (ath0).
I have a crossover ethernet cable (I bought on ebay). I have set up my laptop with a static IP address on my LAN and it uses OpenDNS.
I have added this to /etc/sysctl.conf on the laptop:
This is a variation on what I found on other sites describing how to set up a router. I don't understand iptables very well, but I gather that the above two lines should set up forwarding so that traffic from my router to the laptop will be forwarded to the desktop, and vice versa.
But this doesn't work. The connection doesn't even establish between the laptop and the desktop.
I am running Slackware -current. Every thing was working fine and suddenly it stopped. I am unable to connect to the router or the internet. Which is a problem since I'm using it right as a server.
I am running slackware-current on a thinkpad r61i with ubuntu 10.10 i can connect to router without a problem but not with slackware the router is a belkin f6d4630.
I just installed WUBI and tried to connect to my home router but am unable to. I can connect to nearby unlocked routers, but am unable to connect to mine which is WPA-PSK [TKIP]. Also, this is the first time I've even seen Ubuntu
I did a fresh install,I also enable the networkmanager.after installation,my wireless unable to connect to my router . when I click to connect , it prompt for password then after that nothing happen.
I'm new to fedora and also new to Linux too. I'm using lenovo SL410 which is not provisioned for serial port. Now I want to configure cisco router via serial-usb (Z-TEK) converter, for that I have installed minicom and still I'm not able to connect to router. Do I need to install driver for converter that I'm using?
My son lost his USB Wireless stick for his Computer. I had thought I heard that if you had a second wireless router, you could use it somehow to detect the wireless router you have already set up in your home (like using a wireless card)? Is this what Ad-Hoc is? Either way, can this be done and if so how? I use a WRT54Gx2 Lynksys router and have a TRENDNET TEW-432BRP wireless router and also a spare D-link DI-514. I use ubuntu 10.04, and also wanted to know if I connected one of the router to his on the LAn port could he connect msaybe through an Ad-Hoc on my local computer here? He uses XP on his. I'm a newbie to linux and networking in general.
My problem is little different then what I've seen here. I get the same message after inputting network name and password. I click connect and it just pops up again I don't get it. I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 for Ppc (PS3) I get no internet connection what so ever just the same message. The message I get is " authentication required by wireless network " What do I need to do to connect wireless to my router with my PS3 using Ubuntu 8.10? It does connect with a Ethernet Wire. I am new with Linux.
my LAN just suddenly stopped working. we had a power outage, and it just stopped. it will still recognize the network, but it wont connect. i was experimenting with setting up a web server (trying to set it up on the standard distro). i know its not the network card (on board) because i can put in my pci card and it still wont connect. it will connect when in the live environment. i thought that maybe it had updated, so i tried to boot from a different (older) kernel. that still didn't help.
i stopped apache. i was experimenting with portforwarding at the time (i had everything else working on my server), but i could not get it to work. after this happened, i restored the original settings on my router. i had applied the settings only a day before the power outage. everything still works on another computer on the network (also running linux). (all computers run 9.10) its almost like my router won't assign me an ip address.
I have a new belkin N1 router which I tested in somebody else's flat. It worked fine. When I got home I reset it by pushing a paperclip in the hole for 10+ seconds to erase this flat's internet connection settings (username and password and stuff). After this I plugged it the computer and tried to connect to it (wired connection) using 192.168.2.1 (this is correct for that router, it is not 192.168.0.1). But the browser says it is offline and cannot connect. The lights of the router cycle, the "modem router" light blinks continuously and the others briefly come on and go off again, every few seconds. I tried resetting it again, several times, leaving it off for a few hours, leaving it on for a few hours, etc.
I recently just upgraded my operating system to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I can't seem to get my wireless card to connect to our new Verizon Actiontec router. I am using an Encore Electronics 802.11n Wireless USB Adapter (model: ENUWI-N), which had worked with an earlier version of Ubuntu and our old router. The adapter recognizes the SSID of the new router but will not connect with the correct WEP key or even with the encryption turned off. I have tried deleting the wireless profiles and manually re-creating them and still no dice. I have also gone to the website of the chipset manufacturer and found the latest drivers (RT2870USB(RT2870/RT2770)) for the adapter, which, according to the Synaptic Package Manager, I do not currently have installed.
Where do I go from here? Do I need to install the new drivers, and if so how do I do that?
I wanted to try Ubuntu again but have gone wayback to an old 8.10 disk because I couldn't get 10.10 to work. The install with 8.10 went fine but the internet will not connect. The network manager shows eth0 grayed out and when going in to manage the connection it says 'never'. I'm using Vista with a broadband modem connected to a netgear router.
Im trying to setup Ubuntu for my buddy. After talking it up for ages of course i get a problem ive never seen be for . He is running 10.10 (or whatever the newest is lol) and when running windows it hooks up to the internet just fine through the router. however in ubuntu it will only connect when i plug it directly into the modem. Route gives no output. Kinda weird. router is Linksys Wireless G Broadband Router. WRT54G.I dont want him running back to windows before he even gets into it.
new to ubuntu and having difficultly connecting to my wireless router.It can see the router but will not connect keeps asking for password.usb adapter is working 100% as i can connect with it using xp 64bit.
I think I have unique problem. I have a d-link DWL G510 rev c.(Austrailian) WiFi card in my pc which is detected as

Network controller [0280]: RaLink RT2561/RT61 rev B 802.11g [1814:0302] in lspci -nn.
iwconfig shows:

Now sometimes it detects my wifi router and shows its ssid in nm-applet. but when I try to connect, it tries for 3 or 4 minutes and then fails. for most of time it even does not finds my router.
I have installed ubuntu 10.10 and am really happy. I want to sort the wireless conection out now. I have been through this forum for hours today and can't get it working. I have a Broadcom wireless card, which seems to be working fine, but I am not 100% convinced.I have attached the output of some of the commands that I have seen referred to on here.
I am using the wired connection on the same router, so the router connects fine.I click on the network icon and I see the skyNNNN router in the list. I have tried connecting to it and it asks me for my password, which I provide then nothing happens until it asks me again.I have removed the security from the router and I then see the same skyNNNN router without a lock icon. I try to connect and it still fails.I am not using an access list on the router, so there is no issue with the mac address.
I have been using pppoe connect to Internet,now I want my notebook get on line,I bought a wireless router but Ubuntu(64-bite) can't connect to Internet through the wireless router.pppoeconf said that found eth0 and vboxnet0,but search concentrator failed and pppoeconf exited.How can I fix it.
I have just installed 11.04 alongside windows vista. I have been trying to connect my router but it keeps saying disconnected from network. I have ran all of the troubleshooting tips in ubuntu its self and everthing seems in order. is there any settings i need to change on my router or in ubuntu's edit connections programe? I managed to connect to the router once to upgrade from 10.10 to the 11.04 but even before upgrading to 11.04 i had problems connecting to the router.
I'm having a problem with my RTL8187 wireless card using NDISwrapper The problem is that I can't connect to my home router I tried everything and it won't let me Suggesting changing my security settings to WPA is not valid because my retarded brother won't let me do it, so is there anyway I can connect to this router??
Just installed ubunto 1104 and I cannot connect wirelesly to my router. When I go through the trouble shooting the recommendation is to got to the device drivers page but the link does not take me anywhere. Here is the info from the terminal.
I have two Ubuntu 11.04 machines connected via cable to the same D link ADSL router. how do i connect one to the other so i can see from the other computer files and transfer them using nautilus?
I'm trying to connect to a new Belkin wireless router, but wicd refuses to connect. I've been reading some of the other threads but they haven't made much sense as the hardware is different.
The output from the iwconfig command is as follows:
When I ran lspci it told me I had a RaLink RT2800 802.11n PCI Network Controller. On the box it says it "Supports the most popular systems" and mentions Linux. I'm using a 63 character WPA2 password, which has been copied from a USB key, so I know that is correct.
