Thank you in advance for your help and support.At work we have a wireless access point which is accessible without password protection. I have been able to access it regularly but every now and then it cuts out and won't let me in. I am able to see the network available, however no matter what I do and how many wireless tutorials I follow I just can't get a connection.Trying to access from a Toshiba Satellite Centrino with PRO/Wireless 2200BG using ipw2200 1.2.2 driver firmware.Any ideas as to what might be causing this problem?PS. As this is a work wireless access point I don't have direct ac
I have an old laptop that I bought an Edimax card for and run 8.10 on. I would like to be able to remote login over XDMCP from this laptop, but I cannot as wireless is not available from boot.At boot I see various warnings flash past "WLAN1: error fetching interface information. Device not found" and so on (I wish I could get a log of the boot messages, but that seems to be impossible). Firestarter also fails on boot.All I appear to have in "/etc/inferfaces/network" file isauto loiface lo inet loopbackAnd this confuses me as everything is configured correctly in NetworkMana
Trying to get my "future" content wireless available. So therefore i have a couple of days to dive into "WML" world.But i came across XHTML and now i am not sure if i have chosen the right strategy:"making my (mysql-stored) content wireless by converting the content to .wml pages with PHP".Or should i dive into XHTML?Or first create the .wml pages and in a latter stadium do it all again in XHTML?Tips, suggestions, links?
If I boot Ubuntu from the live disc, the Broadcom installs and activates flawlessly. I installed Ubuntu (Lucid) to my hard drive and it seems to be reading the CD but then gets and error saying it couldn't find the driver.I only have wireless available to me so ethernet is not an option. Is there another way to download the needed the packages in OS X and then install them in Ubuntu?
My wireless was working perfectly until I accidentally let the battery run flat with the machine prevented from hibernating. Upon recovery, there was no wireless available. Checking the Hardware Drivers, I can see the Broadcomm driver as "Activated but not currently in use". Following the copious advice elsewhere I have disabled the driver, rebooted the machine, enabled it again - many times. Still the same message. What is stopping me from activating it? Bit of a noob so........
Just installed 11.04.Before install, during live cd preview, it detected my dell wireless card and offered to install a Broadcom (as I remember) proprietary driver. However, after a proper install, it did not make the same offer and left no wireless available.This is my first linux installation in years, so a bit of hand holding would be greatly appreciated.
I have a HP dv9000 and after a fresh install of 9.10 (using wubi), I have no wireless available and ubuntu also doesn't provide me with any proprietary drivers for my video card.

Ive just newly made the leap from Windows to Linux and got Ubuntu 9x on my HP TX1340ae (TX1000 range) laptopIve followed the instructions from a few pages and they all recommend ndiswrapper and the set of drivers that I appear to have.

I had my wireless working fine under 6.10, but 7.04 knocked things crazy. I am using an older Toshiba laptop with a Belkin PCIMA wireless card. I used Ndiswrapper to install the win drivers and all was working fine under 6.10. Anyhow, here is how i got my wireless working. Your mileage may vary.1) I am using WEP security. yeah, i know, but please no lectures on how useless WEP is compared to WPA. I have 66 - yes, sixty six - wireless networks outside my front door, and 26 of them have no security at all. So right now, WEP does fine.2) I installed WIFI Radar. I had to hook up to the net via cab
I've got a Linksys WPC11 ver.3 wireless card (pcmcia) in my Sony Vaio laptop. It works fine if I give it a static IP address. It even works with WEP.I cannot get DHCP to work on it. When I use the Network settings widget, and try to configure it with DHCP, it fails. It only seems to know about IPV6, not IPV4.My home setup is with a Linksys BEFW11S4, which is the DHCP server. It works fine with XP boxes.I was on the road last week. There was wireless available at the motel I was at. I defined a new "Location", but I couldn't get an address. That's when I noticed that it was thinking i
I'm a returning Ubuntu user so I have a little bit of technical competence. I need some assistance with my wireless.It seems this is a pretty widespread issue, and of course there 101 ways to approach it. I have a Dell XPS M1330 with the Dell Wireless 1505 Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini-Card. The driver is provided by Broadcom and its file name is: BCMWL6.sysSo, how do go about getting this thing working. Right now I'm just testing out Ubuntu on a Live CD. I wanna get this working first on the Live CD if possible. It doesn't even show that I have a wireless connection available. On the top bar there
I'm on work experience in Japan right now, and I've borrowed an old laptop from a friend here. It was running Windows XP, although I shouldn't say running - more like crawling.So I installed Fluxbuntu on it, but after struggling with it for 2 weeks, I decided to install Xubuntu instead. I'm really happy with it so far, but I still haven't managed to get my wireless going. At home I have a wired connection, but at work they only have wireless available. If I could just fix the wireless, I could scrap windows XP entirely and free up 16gb (total of 20gb harddrive). The problem is that it's some s
I was reading the madwifi-ng README and noted that ioctl calls only work in kernels up to the 2.6.15 kernel:MadWifi supports the use of the Wireless Extensions ioctl's equal to orgreater than WE18 (linux 2.6.15).Obviously I need ioctl in order to enter monitor mode with my wireless card that uses madwifi, with this kernel version (since I upgraded to Feisty) I've been unable to enter monitor mode with my card and always get some sort of error.What's up with this, do I have to downgrade my kernel to get monitor mode back? Is there some hack around to it?

regrettably this is going to be a long post, I think the issues are interrelated. Installing on fake-raid with dmraid has always frozen my kernel and apt refuses to update the kernel even though a number of updated kernel are available. After upgrade to 10.04, my 2 drive raid 0 dmraid/fake-raid Asus G50VT notebook system is unstable. However 9.10 was rock solid the entire time I had it. I have two major issues after 10.04 upgrade described below. At least the second will be fixed by upgrading the kernel. I tried to force it and the system was unusable after, I ended up doing a complete reinsta
I've troubles getting my new Sweex wireless 300N USB adapter to work. Tried searching in several directions (see closed thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1512533)).Further investigations shows however it is caused by the NDISGTK wrapper for Windows drivers. Can anyone tell me whether Sweex is shipping a faulty driver (it is the latest available) or it is a fault in ndisgtk? Or maybe I'm doing something stupid myself, which I do not find completely imagenary ;-) Anywhay below some more detailed information on my findings:Started with network off and examined the networkstatustpee
New to the forum so please be gentle, its a couple of years since dipping my toes in the Linux pond:).Installed 9.04 yesterday next to my XP partition everything worked perfectly even my Buffalo usb wireless stick got online everything great which suggests all my components ok with Ubuntu 9.04. Fired it up today and no wireless available not in Network manager not even an `enable wireless` label like I had yesterday, my desktop wallpaper has even vanished?. I`m thinking everything I did yesterday was as root and today I`m logged in as `Steve`hence the different desktop. I can`t access any root
Please help me, I've spent weeks googling & searching this and other forums. Part of this is I am very new to linux brought on by having purchased a computer with Vista. I am trying to use SuSE 10.1 and think I will really like it if i can get on the net with it. I don't know if it is a configuration problem, installation problem, set up problem or what. I have dial up, it's all we have out here. Some day may get wireless available, but Embarq has said we will have broadband available the day before hell freezes over (though they were nicer about it). I bought a best data 56k external USB

Nice, isn't it?But if I do not connect to anyone, after a while there's no network listed here, although if I ask the manager for connection and I give the name of the network, it connects me inmediatly (of course, if there is enough signal).My question is: What should I do in order to hold this applet showing me the availabl
I am kind of new at Ubuntu butI have just reinstalled -- Ubuntu 8.04-- Kernel 2.5.24-16-generic-- Gnome2.22.1On my Dell Studio 1535 laptop.I ran Update manager and after it did some internet accessing it came back and told me it had found 1049 updates for me. It preselected all of them, most of them look like they have nothing to do with my interests. (e.g. a vast number of language pack items for languages most I have not even heard of before) I can only seem to deselect them one at a time so I figured I would install all of them. After it got my password, it caqme back with a dire warning:--
I have been running 10.04 now for about three months and I have had no problems. Everything worked "out of the box". Both the wired and wireless network connections worked flawlessly from home and in the office.Since last Thursday (07.10.10) I have had problems connecting to the wired network in our office (no wireless available). Both the wired and wirelss network at home still work without any problems.The office set up uses DHCP, meaning that there is really nothing to set up. It simply worked. Since Thursday morning, however, my notebook will connect to the network and grab an IP
I am travelling and have a laptop that I have had to reinstall with Ubuntu 9.04. There is only WPA wireless available. The card is an Atheros.The Ubuntu DVD installed the O/S. When I select connect to the WPA wireless network, the network manager only displays a box for WEP and not WPA.I would be very grateful if someone would be kind enough to tell me where I can download the correct .debs to enable WPA for 9.04. In case you wonder, I am sending this from an Internet cafe that won't let me connect the netbook to the wired network.Best
I have an HP laptop with a dual boot into Windows Vista and Ubuntu. I am unable to get high speed where I live so therefore attempt to connect at a local establishment which has high speed wireless available.Windows Vista automatically recognizes the wireless network and signs in. Ubuntu does not find the wireless network.Any ideas how a newbie to the linux system can connect to the wireless network?
I'd like my laptop to connect to any wireless available network before I log in, but I'm not quite sure how to achieve this.Why would I do this, you ask? I'm modifying a script someone else wrote to phone home every time the laptop is turned on, even if the person in possession of the laptop (aka thief) can't log in. It's not a great anti-theft system, I know, but I just had a laptop stolen, and I'm kicking myself for not having taken more measures to protect my machine and my data. Plus, I'm a geek and this kind of thing gives me satisfaction.I've read that I should be able to connect to any
I have a DWL-650+ wireless PCMCIA adapter, supported by the acx driver. However, when the system boots and loads the driver, I see a stacktrace in dmesg, and it does not work.On the other hand, the TIACX or AIRPLUS Windows drivers via ndiswrapper do not support WPA, and the rest of my network uses WPA. The same drivers (AIRPLUS) work in Windows for WPA, but in Ubuntu, NetworkManager does not let me type in a WPA key, the choices are WEP, ..., LEAP. However, adding a key manually by "edit wireless networks" works; but the connectivity is like 2 secs connected, 5 secs disconnected, rec
HiWell maybe 3 things:) 1st I really like Ubuntu and would consider a total move to Linux for all my PCs if I can resolve a few minor but still niggly issues.I have just installed Fiesty to my laptop and after 3 attempts with a new install each time I have net access with my IPN2220 wireless card. It took some time but I got ndiswrapper to work as the instructions say it should.So to my 2nd point. Ubuntu isn't consistent with recognition of my wireless card. I got it running for the 1st time last night updated Ubuntu, had a chat to a mate over Gaim (I like that program alot :) ) surfed the net
Greetings.I guess I'm a Linux newbie, although I did spend 10 or 20 years in the paleolithic era programming in UNIX environments, so I'm not a UNIX newbie.

I mostly just need to vent --- at the end of the post I shall review my current plan and ask for a sanity check ...I live out in the boondocks, where I am lucky to have a phone line at all.

When I click ok the browser won't start. I go back to the networkings window and the wireless connection is not activated. I have checked the enable this connection box. I am using a Sony
Hello, I was wondering if anyone has the time to explain a little about the wifi in xubuntu edgy. In windows xp, all I had to do was open the wifi manager, and I would see a list of wifi router addresses that I could link to. If I wasn't seeing an address that I knew was there, then I could just click the "refresh" button and I would see a new list of available addresses.In xubuntu 6.0.6 and 6.10, I was able to install my broadcom airforce1 internal wireless card's drivers from this ubuntu forum tutorial: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174I used the first option of s

I've got Edgy installed, and have a WPC11v4 card in use. I got everything working with my home wireless (WEP was a pain, but it's done) but I am finding I can't locate other wireless networks.Specifically, I brought my laptop to work for testing because we've got public wireless available. I've tried to set up an alternate 'location' in my network settings but I think I'm overlooking something because I can't connect to anything, or even detect a network as far as I can tell.What can I do to:a) set a new connection that will locate local wireless networksb) set this as a separate 'location' so

Will I have to run off a mobile phone? Any tips and help would be appreciated,
