Thread: I want Wireless Internet on Ubuntu (Karmic Koala)

I own a Dell M1530 Laptop, Wireless works in windows but I don’t like too.

How can I acquire Wireless web with Ubuntu (Karmic Koala)

Open up a terminal

(Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal )

In the terminal type as:

"sudo ifconifg -a"

Copy as well as paste the output here.

Also type as "sudo lspci" plus paste this output here.

Can you please provide the output of:

sudo lshw -C network; sudo iwlist scan

Thanks

Hi,

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

In order to meet necessary troubleshooting details on your wireless card, please pursue this process:

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

Step 2: Please copy-paste the subsequent command into the Linux Terminal. Do NOT copy-paste from the Email message into the Terminal, as that will only copy PART of the command. The command STARTS with the statement sudo as well as ENDS with the word restart. So please copy-paste the whole command under Firefox into a Terminal, and after that press the <enter> key, and afterwards enter your password when sudo requests for password, and press the enter key 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

Regards,
