Thread: Can't get wireless to connect

I presently installed Ubuntu 9.10 as well as I cannot acquire the wireless to turn on. I made sure to confirm the enable wireless box as well as checked through the terminal plus it seems like its disabled. On windows I would turn on the wireless driver automatically so now I'm stuck as well as don’t know what to do.

Hi,

Please initially hook up your network card to the wireless router by an ethernet wire (also well-known as a LAN cable).

In turn to collect crucial troubleshooting information on your wireless card, please pursue this process:

Step 1: Open Terminal from "Applications->Accessories->Terminal"

Step 2: Please copy-paste the subsequent command from the Firefox into the Linux Terminal. Do NOT copy-paste from the Email message into the Terminal, as that will only copy piece of the command. The command STARTS with the word sudo as well as ENDS with the word restart. So please copy-paste the whole command below from Firefox into a Terminal, and press the Enter key, and after that enter password when sudo asks for password, after that press enter once more.

sudo lshw -C network; sudo iwlist scanning; cat /etc/network/interfaces; cat /etc/lsb-release; lspci -nn; lsusb; sudo lshw -C usb; uname -a; dmesg | grep ound; dmesg | grep b43; dmesg | grep iwl; iwconfig; sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

Step 3: Please post results (copy/paste terminal output) on this thread

Step 4: Please also denote the precise model as well as make of pc that you are using.
Regards,
