[08:29] <Hummer> I have a problem with my wifi on lubuntu 18.10 32 bit
[09:11] <Hummer> i have a problem with my wifi
[09:14] <guiverc> Hummer, what is the problem?
[09:14] <guiverc> fyi:  if you don't get help here, the main room #ubuntu can also be used.
[09:15] <Hummer> i can't connect with wifi. have you a guide for connecting with wifi?
[09:15] <Hummer> i can't found one on the internet thath work for my.
[09:16] <guiverc> Hummer, https://manual.lubuntu.me/3/3.1/3.1.5/nm-tray.html?highlight=wifi is probably the most appropriate page in the manual
[09:16] <Hummer> i will take a look
[09:17] <guiverc> Hummer, 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 made
[09:19] <Hummer> guiverc, whats the nm-panel?
[09:20] <guiverc> network-manager panel widget
[09:21] <Hummer> i that the icon left next to the volume button?
[09:21] <guiverc> item 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 wifi
[09:22] <Hummer> yes that d'one that i mean.
[09:23] <Hummer> i have there check the wifi on button but a see no wifi networks
[09:24] <Hummer> and i have a wifi network card install
[09:28] <guiverc> my 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)
[09:29] <Hummer> i can see the networks on a windows pc. but on my lubuntu laptop i can;t see it.
[09:30] <Hummer> and the networks in the regio can't  see also
[09:30] <guiverc> okay, 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 much
[09:35] <kc2bez> Hummer: It may be a driver issue. Please pastebin the output of lspci
[09:36] <Hummer> kc2bez: this the output of the comment:

[09:37] <kc2bez> I think the bot silenced you. You need to use paste.ubuntu.com or something similar.

[09:40] <Hummer> is this now good?
[09:42] <kc2bez> I think it keeps cutting it off. The IRC not won't let you post a wall of text.
[09:42] <kc2bez> !paste
[09:43] <Hummer> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bmf2cDrVxY/
[09:43] <Hummer> this works for my
[09:46] <kc2bez> Much 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.
[09:55] <Hummer> i 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 connected
[09:56] <Hummer> and by the list of connects hav i the wired connect that i now use and the conneting with my smartphone that says never connected
[10:08] <guiverc> Hummer, rather obvious, are laptop and smartphone using the same frequency (5/2.4ghz)?
[10:09] <Hummer> that can i not config on my smartphone
[10:10] <guiverc> possibly, I've not used a smartphone as an access point (I've rarely had need for wireless)
[10:12] <Hummer> and have this also earlier attempted with oder networks and that dindent neither
[10:13] <Hummer> and add the time i used windows on my laptop my wifi conneting was good
[10:14] <Hummer> guiverc: i have turnd on hotspot on my smartphone
[10:14] <guiverc> Hummer, i had trouble myself when I first used wifi on 18.10; why I made those rather-rough notes
[10:15] <Hummer> i will tray it again
[10:18] <Hummer> guiverc, 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/
[10:22] <guiverc> Hummer, 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)
[10:23] <guiverc> wlo1 is the device you want, my thinkpad shows wlp2s0 is what I want - mine though states <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> so that's different
[10:26] <guiverc> have you tried the 'Right click' (or where my cursor is in gdoc if you see it)
[10:27] <Hummer> as i right clock on the nm-icon than i see only general toolbar options
[10:28] <kc2bez> One thing to check in the `right click` is `enable wifi` is checked on.
[10:29] <Hummer> as i left click i have wifi enabled
[10:35] <guiverc> Hummer, 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'
[10:39] <Hummer> the nm-panel is the nm-panel in the right bottom?
[10:39] <guiverc> yep.
[10:39] <Hummer> is that the wifi logo icon?
[10:40] <guiverc> yeah I mixed up terms in the gdoc; it was a draft that I never polished sorry.
[10:40] <Hummer> i can only left click on it
[10:40] <guiverc> i 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)
[10:42] <Hummer> i sea now the lan wired networlk icon because i have a cable plugged in
[10:42] <Hummer> is that the same icon place? -and chaghed it by wifi-
[10:43] <guiverc> okay, my laptop doesn't have anything connected which could be why I see arrows in opposite direction plus X
[10:43] <guiverc> plugging in a cable into my thinkpad changes the symbol to outline of NIC (network rj45 type connector)
[10:50] <Hummer> if have 2 square with a curved line connnecting the 2 sqaures
[10:52] <kc2bez> That indicates that you are not connected.
[10:53] <Hummer> i use now the lubuntu machine for this chat
[11:04] <Hummer> i have no time left to day i will come to morow back with th esame user name
