I have a WiFi dongle that said to support GNU/Linux, however no drivers were found on the CD, after hours of research i found this and installed the driver, I'm pretty sure my device is listed as supported, but the device is still not recognized, it is listed on lsusb command, but not recognized by any WiFi program like WiFi Radar and wireless-tools, also when i use the iwconfig command, this is what i see, i really need this wireless connection working, can you help, please?
I installed Linux Mint on my Dell Latitude D630 Wi Fi and I love it!! While the lap top was wired to the internet, I could do anything I wanted to do.
But I have wifi. And, the steps I found online did not help me get wifi set up.
When I type "iwconfig" from the command line, it says "no wireless extensions"
Please help. I need this.
Hello, My issue is very common but, not able to resolve it.
Issue I am facing with my Linux (RHEL-5 32-bit) machine, where I am not able to connect to internet.
DWR-113 - D-Link Router is configured for 3G dongle (Vodafone India) - This setup is done via WiFi and not using the provided LAN cable from Win7 machine.
Internet is working absolutely fine in case of Wireless but, at same time when LAN cable is used internet is not working. [Able to ping to Router IP i.e. 192.168.0.1)
Similarly, from Linux box, ping to Router IP is working [LAN plugged] but, Internet not working. IP of linux machine: 192.168.0.60
Also, able to get the console connection of Linux from Windows box..[Windows connected to Router via WiFi and Linux connected to Router via LAN cable]
Please suggest how to get rid of this problem so that Internet will work on Linux via LAN cable.
Many Thanks,
Hi ,
I'm new to Linux , I installed Kali linux on my pc and the wifi card isn't working ..
It is a usb wifi card , It has a cd for its driver. There is a folder in the cd called " Linux Driver " and here's what is inside it

I know that there is an option to start a wifi hotspot on Ubuntu when you are connected to the wired network. But when I want to use my wifi connection as a hotspot, Ubuntu asks me to disconnect from my wifi and then create a hotspot, which is of no use.
If you have ever heard about the software called Connectify Hotspot, I want to use that functionality in ubuntu 14.10.
Is there any way to do that? i am excited to know about that

Hi I am trying to set up my wifi on my new slackware distro.
How can I tell if my network card has been recognized? I ran
"ifconfig wlan0"
and it says there is no such device. What do I do to set up wlan0?
Hi
My wifi isn't working. Broadcom 14e4:43a0 is what I got. Running off a USB on Macbook. Cant apt-get update or install anything as there is no wifi. There is no ethernet port either. I might need the drivers i think ? Maybe its a quick fix ! Please help !!
Thanks in advance.
I have a HP Compaq Presario CQ62-413NR. I have tried using many different distro's and I have the same problem. The networks will be seen and it will start to connect then it immediately gets disconnected. Tried everything on the Ubuntu forum and still nothing. The wifi works flawlessly with Windows though. The wireless card is an Atheros AR9285. I currently have Deepin Linux dual booted on my laptop with no Pro. Drivers for the card available in the settings. If anyone would like to assist me in getting this issue resolved I would greatly appreciate it. I am loving Linux OS!

As in title
Linux mint Rebecca cinnamon 64bit. 2 different WiFi adapters both work on old pc setup . WiFi connects no problem when running from USB. Install to SSD and network shows up but just keeps trying to connect. Tried other versions of mint and lubuntu (same distro as old pc). Will try install to my other HDD later on and try 32bit versions but its a new setup so cant see that helping
Any suggestions please?
