[ubuntu netbook remix] UNE won't pick up my Belkin router

linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – I'm a first time Linux user and have just dual-booted my Advent Milano netbook. I am running XP SP3 as well as Ubuntu Netbook Edition. After much troubleshooting and enquiring I managed to get the wireless up and running on it. However I can only connect to a nearby unsecured network. Ubuntu simply does not acknowledge my Belkin router. The wireless light is not even on. Yet it works perfectly in XP. My router is a Belkin Wireless G (F5D7634xx4A-H). Is there any way I can make it work in Ubuntu? I downloaded the .pdf of the manual but it doesn't mention anything about (HowTos)

The stick is OK, and all the other networks next door appear, however my local network is absent.The network shows up and works on my laptop running xp and windows 7 via their internal adapters.

It also worked fine in the desktop 30 mins before I loaded Ubuntu 9.1 on top

Stick is Belkin N Wireless Adapter bundled with Belkin N Wireless router Z528 ref no.

I have a Linksys WAG320N Wireless N router and a Belkin Wireless N router. The Linksys is acting as a modem and DHCP server, and I want to set up the Belkin as an AP. Is there any reason this shouldn't be possible? Am I right in thinking it's a case of connecting the two routers via ethernet and setting up the Belkin as an AP only and giving it a static IP?

So I am having this problem because I don't know anything about routers and I don't know anything about linux.

When I first upgraded to 9.10 the network manager wouldn't connect to my DSL so I used the pppoeconf ( I don't know what it does just that it works now).

Hi all. I recently installed ubuntu netbook remix 10.04 on my little brother's netbook. For some reason, the wireless will connect at every router I have tried except my home router. I'm guessing it must be a setting or something on the router? The windows laptops in the house have no trouble connecting. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Hi, I'm wicked new to Linux, so pardon me if I haven't a clue.

I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.04, on an Asus EeePC 904HA.

Yesterday, I was connecting to my wireless network, which has WPA2 security, just fine. Then, I disconnected randomly (I'm used to random disconnects, as I'm a great distance away from my router.)

I have very little understanding (ok no technical ability so be gentle)

Ubuntu 10.10 connects to a DSL modem without any problems - I mean I just plugged it in and it worked - GREAT

I bought a wireless router so I could connect my netbook and now my Ubuntu machine which is simply using a cable from the wireless router now DOES NOT connect.

I tried a windows machine on the wired connection from

I am using my MSI wind U100 running Ubuntu 10.4 netbook remix, I have 2 networks, One of them always works and one barley ever works, The first one (That always works)Called Aaron's Computer, This router is in the room in which ubuntu was installed, And the first network ever connected to.

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 maverick netbook edition on my Dell Latitude D830. I am dual booting windows 7 and ubuntu and recently I bought a Cisco Linksys E2000 router. I set it up with a WPA/WPA2 mixed mode security and My friends are all able to connect to it with no problems. I've been running Ubuntu for a while now and i've never had wireless problems until now.

Hi all,

Yesterday I upgraded both mine and my partners laptops to 13.04, now we are both unable to connect to the wireless router (BT HomeHub 3)Prior to the upgrade we had no problems with connecting.
