Just received network adapter and unable to install. Belkin service was useless. Moved computer, running point to point on the LAN. Searching for a compatible driver and/or means of installation. Poor connection with Clear and modem's on top floor, Belkin's a good option.
I decided to install Ubuntu 10.10 64bit on my desktop computer so it would run alongside Windows 7.Everything works fine except I cannot get it on the Internet. I use a wireless network adapter (Linksys AE1000 Wireless-N) to connect to the internet on Windows 7. I have been reading forums this entire day and it's gotten me to the point where I'm about to throw my desktop out the windows!!! Please help me as I want to use Ubuntu. I have my Adapters installation CD if needed.I've already download the NDISGTK along with the other two things it comes with. I used my Ubuntu CD as a source to download the files. I went to System>Administration>Wireless Network Drivers, and I put my network adapter's (Linksys AE1000) software CD in the CD Drive. I clicked "Install New Driver and went into the XP section (as none of the others worked, and it says "rt2870, Hardware Present: Yes)
View 3 Replies View RelatedBasically a few weeks ago I decided to try Linux, in particular Ubuntu. I have it installed in my Windows 7 partition but now I am willing to take the full plunge and switch to it all the way. The only issue is I cannot connect to wireless internet. It states "device not ready". Wireless is turned on on my laptop, I am very near the source, have tried making a manual connection with the network setup. I tried the hardware tester and it found my ethernet and wireless hardware (Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter).
I went to the package thing and looked for Broadcam. I found a package but it was already installed. I tried it manually with:
sudo apt-get install bcmwl-modaliases
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
I then heard to try "sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter" and did but it couldnt find it.As stated before I am new to linux so I'm probably missing something easy I just beg your patiance as I learn this new operating system.
I have a Belkin N150 USB Wireless Network Adapter and a Belkin N150 Wireless Router. I cannot seem to get NetworkManager to connect to the internet. I have blacklisted the 9.10 staging driver and associated rt files. I have downloaded and built the ralink 2.3.0.0 driver. The light flashes on the usb but I cannot connect to internet.

I'm trying Ubuntu for the first time; it's actually the first time I've messed with Linux at all-- and, well, it's kind of intimidating. One of my hobbies is playing with dead computers, and long story short, I have Ubuntu installed to a partition on an external drive connected to an older Dell desktop with no internal storage to call its own. The only network adapter I have to spare right now is the rather wimpy USB one that came with said desktop. I have the CD with the drivers to it, but I think the Linux drivers on it are for a different distribution. Am I going to need to scrounge up another network card or adapter, or am I going to have to start sheepishly asking ridiculous questions regarding basic operation of the command console?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just started using Ubuntu 10.10 recently. and Im not really sure how most of this stuff works. I could probably figure most of it out myself, but I have a question about using a wireless USB stick for internet.I do not have internet on my desktop (the computer with linux on it) and the only way i can get it is by using a Dynex Wireless G USB Network Adapter.
I do not have the disk for it. and Im guessing linux doesnt have the autoinstall thing that windows has (no offense to linux, im starting to love it more than windows). I have the driver for it on my windows computer. I was wondering if i could run the driver from a usb thumb drive.If not, then how can i get the network adapter to work?
We need to fina a wireles adapter that works with Ubuntu.We have a netgear adapter but the OS doesn't recognize it when we plug it into the USB port and there isn't software to install so it will recognize it - only Windows documentation.My daughter loves this OS and wants to keep it but can't connect to our wireless network without an adapter.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI installed a ubuntu server edition on a VMware workstation. The problem is , when I added a network adapter (so, total 2 adapters now), the second one was not being shown in ifconfig. On trying ifconfig eth1, I found that the 2nd adapter didn't have an ip address. So, I installed ubuntu desktop edition on another VM, and this time it showed both the network adapters on doing ifconfig, and both had ip addresses. Why doesn't this work with ubuntu server?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've installed it and it looks great. my problem is that I cant connect to the net since I could not find the driver for my onboard network adapter. it is a Gigabyte GA 945 GCM S2L board. of coarse I searched their site but it says that Linux driver I have to achieve from 3rd party. the adapter's chipset is a Realtek RTL 8111C but I could not find the driver for it. the only one that I've found - doesn't work. I must point out that when I've searched driver for my Nvidia display adapter- I've found it on Nvidia's site and it works great.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an HP Pavilion dv5 1002nr laptop running Vista. I decided to install Ubuntu using the windows installer, which did install well, but I decided that it wasn't for me, and uninstalled it. Now, my wireless adapter which is a Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g can see the network, find networks by itself, and is supposedly installed correctly according to Vista, cannot connect to any networks at all despite being able to see them and acquire a signal strength. Up until installing Ubuntu I have never had an issue like this. Other devices have no trouble connecting to this network, and I am currently using a Netgear wireless usb dongle to connect to the very network that my Atheros can not connect to.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have found instructions but they are not working. I am new to Ubuntu and have only had a few classes that dealt with Fedora and CentOS. So I am rather new to Linux in general. The drivers say they are compatible with linux kernel 2.6 and later so I am going to assume they should work with ubuntu--am I correct in this assumption? If so, when one installs anything in ubuntu should one be set as the admin?
View 4 Replies View RelatedOn my desktop, I have Windows 7. I just also installed ubuntu on a partition in order to dual-boot. The installation worked fine, however now I cannot use the internet on either os. I have a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller On Windows 7, the LAN flashes from "Enabled" -> "Identifying" -> "Network cable unplugged". It does this on a seemingly continuous loop. When I disable it, it will not let me enable it. It says it can't start. Also, I uninstalled and re-installed the driver for my ethernet with no change.On Ubuntu, when I try to do "ifconfig eth0 up" and "dhclient eth0" I get the message "No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping."
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe Fedora 13 Visualization guide mentions the ability to use "shared physical device" to give virtual guest full access to a network device. Where can I find more info on setting this up. When installing my first guest, the drop down menu didn't supply this as an option. Eth0 and Eth1 were not selectable (e.g. grayed out).Is there a better section to ask KVM related question? If so, I'll move there.
I'm setting up my first KVM guest now, played aroudn with VMware briefly. I did spend a lot of time wtih VM on mainframes (yes, I'm old)... and from my research, KVM is "catching up" with what we could do in the old days.

Anyone know how i can get around this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just got a new AZiO AWU212N 802.11n wireless usb adapter (linked below). One of the product reviews said that it works with Ubuntu if you upgrade to the .34 kernel so I thought it would be a good buy. I updated my kernel and Ubuntu detects that there is a wireless adapter, but doesn't detect any networks. My old wireless-g adapter can connect just fine, so I don't know what the problem is.

View 9 Replies View Relatedi just installed Ubuntu 11.04 64bit on my desktop. i have a TP Link TL-WN321G (Ver 4.0) wireless usb adapter to connect to my wireless network (i used to use it with Windows XP).As expected (i'd read up a bit before installing Ubuntu), the adapter was autodetected - i could see my wireless network listed in the networks list dropdown, and lsusb showed it too.lsusb identifies "Bus 002 Device 002: ID 148f:2070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2070 Wireless Adapter"But i cannot connect to the network. When i select my network, it keeps trying to connect, but never succeeds in connecting.
i tried going through the forums for possible solutions, but most of them deal with how to get it working when the adapter is not detected, or when networks are not shown. Or they are for older Ubuntu versions.i use the same wireless network on my laptop (Ubuntu 9.04), and it has a WPA & WPA2 Personal security, with a password, which i've configured in the desktop as well.

I Have an HP Pavilion G6. I recently installed openSUSE after having no luck with another linux distribution. I was told openSUSE is more compatible with laptops, so I figured I'd give it a try. I am now facing the same problem I had been facing w/ the other distribution (Ubuntu). My Network Adapter doesn't seem to be recognized by any linux operating systems. It is a Ralink 802.11b/g/n WiFi adapter. When I open the "network" tab, my home wifi is not listed, nor are any around me. In fact, I can't even open the "wireless" tab.
I've installed any recent drivers for my adapter, and I went to extensive lengths to try to solve the issue on my previous linux distribution. I don't know what output to give you from the terminal, nor do I really know any commands to look for anything. On a side note, I had been messing with my touchpad application, trying to set my preferences. I check the boxes for horiz. and vertic. scrolling with two fingers, and apply. They don't work. I check the boxes for using two finger tap to do something, and three finger tap to do something else.
I used Several Distos, went to school up to Linux 225, but haven't used Linux for years. I have an older (P4, Win xp) laptop I use at the coffee shop. I want to put Linux Mint on it. I use a USB Adapter (Arilink101 AWLL6075) for Wi-Fi. I tried the live CD and, of course, USB Adapter doesn't work. In the half hour I looked at it, I realized I forgot a lot of things. I could not even find the laptop USB. Will tring to get it to work be the typical Linux thing, where you download the drivers, do the install right, and it doesn't work? You compile drivers, set everything up right, and it doesn't work?
