Hello ubuntu community forums! I've heard great things so I've come to see if you can give me a hand.

I own a HP MINI 1000 and I'm trying to fix the known problem of the wireless card in ubuntu 9.10. Now let me tell you the steps I have taken.

Hello all, my name is John and I am currently living in china but I'm from Virginia, I have just installed Ubuntu on my HP laptop and I am having a problem with the internet connection. At work there is a wireless connection that the computer will connect to with no problem but at home i have a Modem/Wireless route unit I'm guessing that's called a mini PPPOE?

System: Ubuntu Server 10.10 NIC: wmp300n

Dear all, I am working in Ubuntu 8.04.....I have my Acer laptop...My wireless card as i found by the command, $ lshw -C network is Intel/PRO/Wireless 3945abg and driver module is iwl3945.... i had no problem with wireless for somedays...few days back i am not able to connect into wireless...

The wired internet connection by default is configured properly in Ubuntu installation. We can directly dial-up via sudo pppoeconf, or connect to a cable which already on internet.
