Please i need my wifi.
but only on Ubuntu.
I have a Compaq Presario set up as dual boot with Windows XP and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
VDSL modem is upstairs and by itself doesn't have much signal when I try to use the laptop downstairs so have added a Belkin N300 wireless router to provide a good signal in the sitting room.
Booting into XP the wifi works perfectly and the little blue wireless switch/light is nicely alight.
Hello all,
I've a problem with wifi in my Desire S and actually I don't know if it's software or hardware related. The problem:
Wifi switch is On, but no network scans at all, sometimes networks appear, but just for two, three seconds, and then no networks again.
I have a small issue with my Ubuntu 9.10 Beta. Actually all function keys ('FN' +) work quite well out of the box. No problem with sound volume, background light etc.

I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my Dell Inspiron E1705 and everything works great except the wifi is not working. I am currently using a wifi usb that is allowing me to use the internet.
Still looking around for some help through other threads, but not necessarily confident with any of them.

I am currently using 11.10 on my Compaq Presario V3130 machine. When recently I tried to use wireless on my laptop i found that it is not working as the option of "Enable Wireless" is not highlighted in the network manager. My wifi switch is on and earlier I had used wifi with 11.04. Please help on this as don't know much about Ubuntu.
I'm new to Linux and just installed Ubuntu last night as a dual boot with Windows 7. When I first installed it using USB the WiFi worked. Then I figured out how to use the Software Updater and updated it, downloading about 200 MB of updates.
Then the WiFi stopped working. For the record, I've seen numerous threads about this same topic and have tried basically everything they have said to try.
