[Bug 880307] Re: Wi-fi won't connect in 11.10.

 

It's unusual to not be seeing any scan results here.

Could you please try the following two commands?

nmcli dev wifi list

iw dev wlan0 scan dump

For the second one, you'll need to install the 'iw' package (sudo apt-
get install iw). The goal is to try and see elsewhere if there are scan
results from the driver. If nothing shows up in either command, this
would end up being a driver issue.

Thanks in advance!

Title:
  Wi-fi won't connect in 11.10.

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I updated my system to 11.10. wi-fi stopped working. I can see
  the available wireless networks but when I try to connect I always get
  the message that the password is incorrect. Password is good for sure
  because I actually updated the system while connected through wi-fi.
  On my second computer it also works fine. I even tried 3 different
  kernels with no result. I suspect the problem is in the ethernet
  driver. Here's some info:

  uname -a:

  Aspire-3100 3.1.0-030100rc10-generic

  lspci:

  06:01.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
  06:02.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR2413 802.11bg NIC (rev 01)

  Anybody knows how can I get it working?
