HummerI have a problem with my wifi on lubuntu 18.10 32 bit08:29
Hummeri have a problem with my wifi09:11
guivercHummer, what is the problem?09:14
guivercfyi:  if you don't get help here, the main room #ubuntu can also be used.09:14
Hummeri can't connect with wifi. have you a guide for connecting with wifi?09:15
Hummeri can't found one on the internet thath work for my.09:15
guivercHummer, https://manual.lubuntu.me/3/3.1/3.1.5/nm-tray.html?highlight=wifi is probably the most appropriate page in the manual09:16
Hummeri will take a look09:16
guivercHummer, also https://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/how-can-i-connect-wifi/46/2  was a question on discourse.lubuntu.me where I pasted some notes I made09:17
Hummerguiverc, whats the nm-panel?09:19
guivercnetwork-manager panel widget09:20
Hummeri that the icon left next to the volume button?09:21
guivercitem bottom right; but I'd not really know how to describe it sorry.  yeah it's probably edit (it'll show view connections, edit connection with right-click)09:21
guiverc(note: this is from memory; my lubuntu desktop doesn't have wifi09:21
Hummeryes that d'one that i mean.09:22
Hummeri have there check the wifi on button but a see no wifi networks09:23
Hummerand i have a wifi network card install09:24
guivercmy own wifi networks are hidden, so they aren't seen (the discourse link I gave has some notes I wrote down for 18.10), where I add my network (my link is text only, I didn't add pictures)09:28
Hummeri can see the networks on a windows pc. but on my lubuntu laptop i can;t see it.09:29
Hummerand the networks in the regio can't  see also09:30
guivercokay, but sorry I have limited experience with wifi (why I made the notes I did) as I 99.9% use only wired network sorry so I can't help much09:30

kc2bezI think the bot silenced you. You need to use paste.ubuntu.com or something similar.09:37

Hummerhttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bmf2cDrVxY/09:43
Hummerthis works for my09:43
kc2bezMuch better, I got your paste. I don't think that is one of the cards with known issues so guiverc 's instructions should be good.09:46
Hummeri have set up a htospot on my smartphone to test the guide and add the network to my laptop with lubuntu and my smartpone says that 0 devices are connected09:55
Hummerand by the list of connects hav i the wired connect that i now use and the conneting with my smartphone that says never connected09:56
guivercHummer, rather obvious, are laptop and smartphone using the same frequency (5/2.4ghz)?10:08
Hummerthat can i not config on my smartphone10:09
guivercpossibly, I've not used a smartphone as an access point (I've rarely had need for wireless)10:10
Hummerand have this also earlier attempted with oder networks and that dindent neither10:12
Hummerand add the time i used windows on my laptop my wifi conneting was good10:13
Hummerguiverc: i have turnd on hotspot on my smartphone10:14
guivercHummer, i had trouble myself when I first used wifi on 18.10; why I made those rather-rough notes10:14
Hummeri will tray it again10:15
Hummerguiverc, this is the output of the ip addr comment of this guide (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GSgtFqCEVuWLk8GsFPHQxTBiIJJUMKWYEJcW9Z25cck/edit) : https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QQDgQ37T82/10:18
guivercHummer, fyi: i'm booting up a thinkpad to compare; i'll use 19.10 as it's what I have handy  (today's daily in live mode)10:22
guivercwlo1 is the device you want, my thinkpad shows wlp2s0 is what I want - mine though states <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> so that's different10:23
guiverchave you tried the 'Right click' (or where my cursor is in gdoc if you see it)10:26
Hummeras i right clock on the nm-icon than i see only general toolbar options10:27
kc2bezOne thing to check in the `right click` is `enable wifi` is checked on.10:28
Hummeras i left click i have wifi enabled10:29
guivercHummer, all I can think of is you've missed the nm-tray icon, and hit the panel itself (if you mean 'task manager, configure, move, remove, configure pane, manage widgets etc'10:35
Hummerthe nm-panel is the nm-panel in the right bottom?10:39
guivercyep.10:39
Hummeris that the wifi logo icon?10:39
guivercyeah I mixed up terms in the gdoc; it was a draft that I never polished sorry.10:40
Hummeri can only left click on it10:40
guiverci just switched my 19.10 to a found 18.10.  it has a different icon pic, two arrows aimed left/right with X on my thinkpad now - click on that (if that's what you see)10:40
Hummeri sea now the lan wired networlk icon because i have a cable plugged in10:42
Hummeris that the same icon place? -and chaghed it by wifi-10:42
guivercokay, my laptop doesn't have anything connected which could be why I see arrows in opposite direction plus X10:43
guivercplugging in a cable into my thinkpad changes the symbol to outline of NIC (network rj45 type connector)10:43
Hummerif have 2 square with a curved line connnecting the 2 sqaures10:50
kc2bezThat indicates that you are not connected.10:52
Hummeri use now the lubuntu machine for this chat10:53
Hummeri have no time left to day i will come to morow back with th esame user name11:04
