[Bug 373791] Re: cannot connect wireless with jaunty
I discovered that despite the fact the little wireless indicator light was on, my wireless card was, in fact, not enabled (please read last post). It is now enabled and seems to work fine. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = groovomata (groovomata-gmail) ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- cannot connect wireless with jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 373791] Re: cannot connect wireless with jaunty
I am currently typing this note using a wireless connection. After I was unable to get wireless to work with ubuntu 9.04, I got paranoid that my wireless adapter was no longer working and decided to see if it would work if I install Windows Vista on my computer. Lo and behold, it did not... but while digging around in vista, one dialogue box informed me that my card was not enabled, and indeed the little wireless light was not lit in vista. Once I enabled it, wireless worked fine in vista. So then I wiped out vista and re-installed Jaunty and voila! My wireless worked. I very much prefer ubuntu over Windows, but I do wish in all of the different outputs of various commands that I pored over, one of them had simply said that my wireless card was not enabled, afterall, the little wireless light was on the whole time in ubuntu. How was I to know? Anyways, I'm happy to report that my wireless now works fine! -- cannot connect wireless with jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

groovomata, have you tried installing the Broadcom STA wireless driver from System - Administration - Hardware Drivers? I have a broadcom card and Broadcom's own drivers installed from there have been very good to me! ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- cannot connect wireless with jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 373791] Re: cannot connect wireless with jaunty
Thanks Michael, for your comment. I did try the Broadcom STA wireless driver, but it doesn't seem to work. On my laptop the wireless indicator light will not go on and network-manager does not show me a list of wireless networks. With the Broadcom BCM4311 driver at least the wireless indicator light will go on and I can see a list wireless networks, even if I can't properly connect to any of them! -- cannot connect wireless with jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 373791] Re: cannot connect wireless with jaunty
I did a reboot, however I'll try it again tonight and report back. I wonder why wireless indicator light doesn't come on with the Broadcom STA driver? What I'll do is remove the BCM4311 driver. Reboot. Install the STA driver. Reboot and attached the results of the various commands above for the Broadcom STA driver. Perhaps that will shed some light on the situation.

Hey again groovomata, If you get a chance to try with a different wireless card, perhaps a USB one, obviously, it is almost certain that is your card, but its certainly worth checking if we can.

[Bug 373791] Re: cannot connect wireless with jaunty
I am going to confirm this. Obviously I cannot reproduce this as we have different network cards. But I think there is sufficient information to come to the conclusion that this is in fact a bug. If I am wrong I encourage anyone to correct me, and ultimately a bug controller will have to decide whether to triage this or not. But based on the information given, id say this is worthy of confirmation. If anyone else has a broadcom card, it would be fantastic if you could comment.

Open terminal and type 'lspci' (sans quotes) and see if you can see your wireless adapter there.
