lsdop | I have a really annoying problem with my copy of 15.04 64-bit. I can see I'm connected to the internet, but will randomly get DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET errors and won't be able to reach any internet pages unless I unplug my router or reconnect to the network. lshw information for my router: https://bpaste.net/raw/c0947a47417b | 05:24 |
---|---|---|
lsdop | It's an N300 USB router. | 05:24 |
lsdop | And Lubuntu 15.04 since I didn't say. | 05:26 |
ianorlyn | lsdop: what kind of device are you suing to connet to the router? | 05:28 |
leszek | tsimonq2: why ? There are tons of apps for that | 09:22 |
tsimonq2 | leszek: That don't work. If you get one working, let me know, because I have tried | 11:40 |
tsimonq2 | *won't not don't :) | 11:40 |
leszek | how about grive ? | 12:13 |
Mathisen | hello i need some help i just installed lubuntu 15.10 on a Compaq 6715b i need some help to get the wireless working.. it did not install it | 13:09 |
hateball | Mathisen: what sort of chipset does it have? | 13:11 |
hateball | I've had a fair few 6715b in my hands over the years, cant remember the chipset most common tho | 13:11 |
Mathisen | hateball, to be honest i dont know.. | 13:12 |
hateball | Mathisen: run lspci | 13:12 |
hateball | I dont think that machine is new enough to have wifi on usb, otherwise run lsusb | 13:13 |
hateball | you should see some line with network, probably Realtek or Broadcom | 13:14 |
Mathisen | hmm it dont show upp just the regular network card that is a broadcom | 13:14 |
Mathisen | but i had windows on it before and it worked so it should be working atleast | 13:15 |
hateball | Mathisen: did you run both lspci and lsusb ? | 13:15 |
Mathisen | i did both the only one in the list is the regular card | 13:16 |
Mathisen | no wifi card | 13:16 |
hateball | that doesnt sound right | 13:16 |
hateball | could you pastebin it? | 13:16 |
hateball | !paste | 13:16 |

Mathisen | shure 2 sec | 13:16 |
Mathisen | hmm copy command in xterm ? | 13:20 |
Mathisen | i dont have a middle mouse button | 13:21 |
Mathisen | :) | 13:21 |
hateball | Mathisen: you can "sudo apt-get install pastebinit && lspci |pastebinit && lsusb |pastebinit" | 13:23 |
hateball | Mathisen: also, ctrl+shift+c/v | 13:23 |
Mathisen | hateball, pastebin.com/1RZGKc3K | 13:24 |
hateball | Mathisen: and lsusb ? | 13:26 |
hateball | nm | 13:26 |
hateball | I cant scroll :D | 13:26 |
Mathisen | :) | 13:26 |
hateball | well, it's obviously broadcom at any rate, question is why isnt it even showing up as a device :| | 13:27 |
Mathisen | indeed :( | 13:28 |
Mathisen | and its turned on also | 13:28 |
hateball | Mathisen: guess you could try "sudo apt-get update && sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" | 13:28 |
hateball | altho if the device isnt even found, I dont know | 13:28 |
hateball | it should show both bluetooth and wifi modules under lsusb | 13:29 |
hateball | Mathisen: hmmm, do you have wifi/ethernet switching active in bios? | 13:29 |
Mathisen | let me check but it should yes | 13:32 |
Mathisen | like i said had windows on it and it worked | 13:32 |
Mathisen | so i havent changed anything in bios | 13:33 |
hateball | well if you have the switching active it will disable wifi while ethernet is connected | 13:33 |
hateball | that is why I am asking | 13:33 |
hateball | I *think* it does it by virtually unplugging the usb device, so that would make it not show | 13:34 |
hateball | and you need a network connection to fetch the broadcom firmware | 13:34 |
hateball | guess the simple question is: was ethernet and wifi active at the same time in windows? | 13:35 |
profus2 | @Mathisen: did you turn on wireless via hardware switch? | 13:35 |
profus2 | is the wireless LED turned on? | 13:36 |
Mathisen | profus2, yes its on | 13:37 |
Mathisen | and i checked bios now its on | 13:37 |
profus2 | hmm | 13:37 |
profus2 | https://serverfault.com/questions/14504/hp-6716s-6715b-and-6710s-laptops-on-linux-wireless-problem | 13:38 |
profus2 | looks like it has Broadcom BCM43XX card | 13:38 |
profus2 | quote: The reason you're not seeing the light turn on is because the right driver isn't loading. The hardware expects a signal from the driver telling it to come out of sleep mode; it does this on Windows boots too, if you watch it. | 13:39 |
Mathisen | the light is on .. its blue and i cant turn it off also | 13:40 |
Mathisen | can | 13:40 |
hateball | it controls bluetooth as well does it not, that button | 13:40 |
hateball | Mathisen: I suppose "rfkill list" is only bluetooth? | 13:41 |
Mathisen | if i run " sudo rfkill list " it shows blurtooth but no wireless | 13:41 |
Mathisen | soft and har blocked = no | 13:41 |
hateball | Mathisen: is this 15.04 btw? | 13:42 |
Mathisen | hateball, umm yes sorry typed wrong before it is | 13:42 |
hateball | oh it doesnt really matter, just checking | 13:43 |
Mathisen | well i think i will resume this on monday only 15 min left on my work day :) ... time to relax with a beer or 2 | 13:44 |
Mathisen | i think i just try to install a diffrent dist | 13:44 |
Mathisen | but thx anyway for the feedback and help | 13:44 |
hateball | Mathisen: you could try "sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer" | 13:44 |
Mathisen | okej il try that | 13:44 |
hateball | but again, it's weird when the machine doesnt even pick up the device | 13:45 |
hateball | I've personally used *ubuntu on many 6715b but it is some releases ago | 13:45 |
profus2 | @Mathisen: try LXLE | 13:46 |
hateball | and I do not recall having to do anything but activate the firmware... | 13:46 |
Mathisen | hateball, okej its done do i need to reboot ? or only restart a service ? | 13:46 |
hateball | Mathisen: reboot, for modules to load | 13:46 |
Mathisen | rebooting... | 13:47 |
hateball | well you can load manually but reboot is just as quick :p | 13:47 |
profus2 | http://lxle.net/ | 13:47 |
Mathisen | lets hope it works :) | 13:47 |
Mathisen | hateball, nice one! it worked | 13:48 |
Mathisen | thx | 13:48 |
Mathisen | wireless is upp :) | 13:48 |
hateball | :D | 13:48 |
hateball | simple as that, weird | 13:48 |
Mathisen | we got a happy ending :) | 13:49 |
Mathisen | thx again | 13:49 |
profus2 | @hateball: nice call | 13:49 |
hateball | :) | 13:49 |
Mathisen | but i need to go home now :) | 13:49 |
hateball | merry weekend | 13:49 |
Mathisen | same | 13:49 |
