Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Network Available - Then Icon Disappeared

Apr 6, 2010

When the laptop boots I get a very brief message to say "wireless network available, click on icon". But it disappears in a second. I'm not clear whether my WL-140 card is in device wlan0 or wmaster0. Here's what lshw -C network says...
*-network

Ubuntu :: View Wireless Networks Icon Has Disappeared

Jan 28, 2011

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS from 9.10 and the icon that lets me view and choose wireless networks to connect to has mysteriously disappeared. I did the whole "Add to Panel" thing and added the "Network Connections" icon to my task bar, but for all the searching through that and other things like System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications, I just can't find a solution! The Network Preferences still has the list of all the wireless networks I have connected to in the past. It still connects to my home network automatically (although I did have to delete another neighboring network from the Network Preferences list so it only has one auto connection to connect to). So where in the world did my icon go? It was so great. Left click to see all local wireless networks and to connect. Right click to turn off networking or wireless.

Ubuntu Networking :: Router Access - No Internet After NM Icon Disappeared

Apr 28, 2011

Today I set my HPG50 with Ubuntu 10.10. I used network install disk, then tasksel to add Ubuntu Desktop. Everything was fine, I set up my samba shares and a few other things. I had the NM icon on the panel but did have to configure. I was on wired connection and I could surf no problem. When I went to set up the wireless, I noticed the icon was gone. I know it was there after the install. At some point the network manager icon disappeared, not sure when because I could still access the router and internet. I spent a few hours surfing google and the forums trying to find an answer. Then, after running update and upgrade I lost internet. Even though I could see the router, I connected straight to the modem, still no internet access. I unplugged the cable from that machine and plugged it into my other system and I could surf just fine.

It was clear that nm-applet was running from running nm-applet at the terminal - nm-applet - "An instance of nm-applet is already running - Warn Couldn't initialize the D-Bus manager. nm-tool - State - connected, Driver r8169, State Unmanaged, Default no. NetworkManager.State - All three entries are set to "true". It seems clear that some other app is managing my connection as I can access the router and am currently serving video to my apple tv from this system. How do I find which app is managing my connection?

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Network Icon Shows "lock" Icon When Trying To Connect

May 16, 2010

3 computers in the house run various windows based programs and everything is fine with them connecting to the internet as far as putting in the security password to log in and get online.My old back up computer that I use in the basement that has Ubuntu 9.10 was working fine with the secured network situation up until today.I booted up the computer this morning and it automatically connected as it typically does and I was reading some email and then the computer froze, which on rare occasions it does.

Upon reboot I got a window that asked for the password for the Network Manager Applet which I supplied and then it asked for the password for the secured internet connection which I supplied.It would not connect. After numerous tries of disabling the wireless and enabling the wireless and entering the Network Manager Applet password and the secured internet password I still get no connection.

I notice that when it is trying to connect, the window comes up on the screen that shows that there is reception from the modem, but there is also a little "lock" icon like I'm locked out of the connection.I finally found a way to get rid of the Network Manager Applet password problem but that still didn't alleviate the connection problem.

Ubuntu Networking :: No Wireless - Eth1 Has Disappeared?

Jan 16, 2011

My wireless suddenly no longer works either in Ubuntu 10.10 or Windows 7. Upon some investigation, I have found that my eth1 is no longer showing up as it used to.

What can I do to get my wireless back?

Right below is some current specs, while below that is an older set of specs from a while ago.

Code:
sef@sef:~$ lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Memory Controller Hub (rev 07)

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Disappeared On Netbook Remix?

May 8, 2011

After installing Ubuntu Netbook Remix on my Toshiba NB505, I hoped the wireless would just work right away, but it didn't. After much searching, I found these instructions (scroll down to High Horse's response at #3), which directed me to download the Realtek Driver RTL8192SE. I followed the directions to a T and everything was working wonderfully, until a recent restart that has taken me back to square one. I think the default Ubuntu drivers may be overriding the drivers I installed and putting everything back to default (no wireless), but I'm not sure. Here's the latest output:

Code:
olamina@ubuntu:~$ sudo su
root@ubuntu:/home/olamina# lshw -C Network

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Support Disappeared After Updates

May 9, 2011

This is a Toshiba Satellite L640 and has a Broadcom BCM4313 controller and Bios version 1.9 and I'm posting by booting my Ubuntu 11.04 cd in "trial" mode which rules out hardware cause for trouble.My 11.04 install is brand new today and wireless was working perfectly immediately after install. Since then, I've shut it down and when I rebooted it I haven't been able to find any wireless connections.

I've installed the updates that were suggested after the install and also activated the two proprietary drivers that th system suggested - this might include the proprietary Broadcom wireless driver, that's the only proprietary driver suggested in the current "trial" mode and I remember there being the graphic driver and one other.I wondered if the wireless was turned off so I tried to turn it on or get it up. I typed ifup wlan0 but it said wlan0 was not configured. In production mode, when I click the wireless icon: it says wireless is enabled and offers me the option of connecting to a hidden network or setting up a new connection, but it can't see any connections even when my phone has seen the connection and automatically signed in. It can't see my home WPA2 connection or my completely open work connection.

Fedora Networking :: Wireless Network Has Disappeared (F10)

May 26, 2009

After a few years of being a fedora user on a large network, I final decided to bite the bullet and dual-boot my home desktop (solely XP at the time) with fedora 10 on Saturday. The installation seemed to go well, but I am having a few problems, which solved themselves at one point but have come back and I have no idea why.

- I installed and re-partitioned with the install DVD, giving fedora 20GB. Having read a few guides and forum posts I wasn't surprised when the wifi and ATI graphics card didn't work. They appeared in the output of lspci, but I couldn't change the screen resolution and no wireless card was available.
- I bought a new wireless card a while ago but hadn't had time to put in so used this opportunity to do so (installed it in XP to check it worked) and when I rebooted, guess what, the resolution was what I wanted and I could see all the networks in the neighbourhood. I connected, downloaded/installed the myriad of updates together with a couple of programes through yum and went to bed a happy man.
- This morning (my router needed rebooting and after) I was back to the same as before the new wireless card, i.e. low resolution and no wifi. Having no idea what had happened, I check for loose connections, after that the resolution returned and the wifi worked but I can't see my home network.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Disappeared From Applet X220 + Realtek Wifi?

Jul 29, 2011

I am having issues with wifi on my Lenovo X220. What has occurred is that the network applet in the notification bar no longer shows me any wireless network options. When I click on the applet, the drop down shows me: Wired network: disconnected (greyed out), VPN connections, Enable networking (checked), Connection information (greyed out), and Edit connections. Missing is Wireless connections. This occurred "out of the blue" in the middle of using the computer (i.e. NOT just after a reboot or new driver installation, etc.)

I have noted that:

1. Wired ethernet works just fine.

2. Wireless (wifi) works when I boot into Windows 7 or into a fresh Ubuntu USB Start up disk (implying that this is a software issue, not hardware).

3. The hardware led for wifi is OFF (whereas the Bluetooth light is on.) In Windows or using a fresh ubuntu from USB, this light turns on normally.

This may be irrelevant, but the issue started yesterday when I noticed that the trackpoint scrolling that I had enabled using gpointing-device-settings was not working. I ran that app and checked the settings, which were normal. I then reset the computer, and found the trackpoint was working just fine, but I had no wifi. A few resets later, the problem was not solved.

Ubuntu :: Wireless Tray Icon Is Turning A Wireless Icon?

May 25, 2010

I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed on a laptop of mine, and also a desktop. On this laptop, it's a clean install and I'm having a weird issue with the panel on the top of thescreen.ometimes when I start up the computer and login, I get two noticeable quirks. Instead of having the wireless icon in the tray next to the volume, I have two volume controls next to each other.The one icon, that takes place of the wireless icon, is not functional.The other volume icon functions as normal.

The other quirk is that my power button, used for choosing to logout, shutdown,etc,isappears. Instead, it shows two of my username next to each other (one is the legitimate one that lets you set your away status and such). And in place of the power button, is another username menu, but it is cut off by the edge of the screen and doesn't function.Has anybody had this problem before? Is there some kind of package I can update or reinstall to try fixing this? Sometimes the power button will be fine, but the volume icon will still double up.

There's a way of getting it back? What package should I install again that maybe I missed?

Ubuntu :: Firefox Icon Appear As A Small White Pinned Paper?

Apr 8, 2011

My firefox icon in ubuntu appear as a small pinned white paper. But when I click on it, it launches the browser without any problems.It was like that in Lucid Lynx too. But My karmic had the proper firefox logo.Can anyone help me in getting my icon back?

Some one had told me that it would be there on the following directory.
/usr/share/icons/balanzan/scalable/apps and select firefox.png.
But I couldn't find it there.

There was no balanzan folder inside icons. I could find scalable folder inside default.kde4 folder.

/usr/share/icons/default.kde4/scalable/apps/
But there no firefox.png.

Networking :: Wireless Drivers/functionality Suddenly Disappeared - Kubuntu 9.1 HP TX1000 Laptop

Apr 18, 2010

I switched my girlfriend laptop from windows 7 to Kubuntu 9.4, then upgraded to karmic koala. I was able to, through the hardware manager, install a software modem driver, and a firmware unwrapper driver for her broadcom 4.X series wireless adapter. Whenever I attempted to install the broadcom 4.1, 4.2. ect driver itself a package update would fail, but wireless functionality still worked nonetheless. My girlfriend has a TX1000 HP laptop, similar to this one:[URL]..Product number in the bios is GA648UA#ABA System Board ID is 30BF

The wireless drivers she needs are proprietary. This worked for a while, although seemingly at random her wireless would go out, and her analog sound driver for her Nvidia chipsets would too. Usually logging out of the KDE environment and back in fixed the issue. Now wireless is completely gone; using a hard ethernet core to the router still works. Even connected to the internet, the proprietary drivers that used to be available in the hardware manager aren't there anymore. Right before the driver disappeared, I updated the system with all the latest round of updates, and installed the base package and some plugins for VLC. I don't know how to role back packages to see if an update killed the wireless, I uninstalled the VLC software but that didn't help.

Wireless is checked enabled on my taskbar, and I have checked my bios and haven't found any setting to disable the wireless adapter. Anything networking related has been enabled. At this point I am rather frustrated with the stability of Kubuntu overall and would prefer a hard solution that will permanently fix the problem.
