No WLAN on Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro (Would love some looks on this)

Hello good folks!

So I reformated my Ubuntu partition today after a major ongoing issue I've had for a couple of weeks.
Anyhow, the issue I'm having is that I cant get my Wireless to work.

I know it's a common issue, and I've fixed it before. Just cant recall exactly how I did.

The first thing that struck me was that I couldn't enable Wi-Fi while installing, and that issue stil remains.
The second thing was that when I ran "rfkill list all" I got:

0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
Soft Blocked: no
Hard Blocked: yes
1: ideapad_bluetooth: Bluetooth
Soft Blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft Blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft Blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

When I run "iwconfig" the return is:

lo no wireless extensions.

wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Acces Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off

When I run "lshw" I get the following:

*-network DISABLED

vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 0
bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0

resources: irq:60 memory:b0400000-b0401fff

Upon running "lspci" I can only find one row about networks, which is the following:
Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (I expected that I would get two rows about it)
The other rows is info about: Audio device, 2x USB, Host bridge, 2x Signal processing controller, PCI bridge, ISA bridge, SATA controllers, SMBus
Unsure if this info is of any use.

When running "lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net" I get:

Subsystem: Intel Corporation Wireless-N 7260 [8086:c262]

Running "lsmod" gives me:
iwlmvm 161349 0
iwlwifi 165398 1 iwlmvm

"ifconfig" gives me the following:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback

RX bytes:10112 (10.1 KB) TX bytes:10112 (10.1 KB)

I don't have any ethernet converter for my laptop, so I havn't tried anything of that.
However! What I can recall is that I'm pretty sure I had to blacklist one item last time I ran Ubuntu on this machine.

Is there any other information you want or more code snippets just say so.
All help is welcome!

Activating BCM wireless on new install

$

Hi

I have installed 14.04 onto a Dell Inspiron 1720. It has the BCM4311 wireless adapter - [14e4:4311](rev01)

Initially I installed it alongside Win Vista and got it working, but then reinstalled and wiped Vista (because it was working... and because it was Vista!).

Now I can't get the wireless to activate - I ran (from a clean ubuntu install) through the sticky thread and installed the linux-firmware-nonfree, rebooted - but no go.

The hardware wireless on switch doesn't activate, and the 'wifi' light stays off. The adapter is enabled in BIOS.

When I had it alongside Windows, I read somewhere that the wifi needed to be 'started' in Windows initially, which I found (then it was ok for subsequent reboots). Obviously I can't do this now!

Any thoughts? I haven't done anything other than install the firmware package as advised, and I'm a bit perplexed. I do have a wired connection.

Many thanks

Stew

Hi all
I am sorry to post again this trouble, i search the whole forum for hours and tries many commands, but it didnt work.
My system : toshiba satellite pro m30
512 MB
NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 - 64 MB DDR SDRAM
Intel Pentium M 735 / 1.7 GHz

I installed a fresh new xubuntu 14.04 (had a few troubles enabling PAE on this laptop)

The wireless wont work, even if i press FN + F8, i checked in the bios, nothing there.

I downloaded the firmware for ipw2200 and copied them in /lib/firmware but nothing changed...
I tried many commands from other posts as i am completely new to linux but nothing changed...

Can someone help ?

Thanks

Plex server will not communicate over openvpn

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and installed openvpn, network-manager-openvpn, and network-manager-openvpn-gnome. Set up my openvpn account and can successfully connect to my vpn provider. I have plex media server running. The media server will not connect when connected to my vpn service provider. I've tried setting my vpn connection using PPTP but still doesnt work although I can connect to my vpn provider with it. I know its not anything to do with my router setup because it works just fine in ubuntu when not connected to vpn service. Also works just fine when connected to the vpn service through my windows 7 desktop I set up as a test.

Im sure Im missing something in the configuration of openvpn, I just dont know what it is. I would appreciate any help. I've been using Ubuntu and various other versions of Linux for sometime but still all in all I'm still somewhat of a noob. Nothing of a programmer although Im getting good at following the gobs of how to's available across the internet.

Ubuntu 14.04 on Dell E1705 WiFi STILL not working

Installed a fresh 14.04, no Enet no WiFi. Follow a bunch of suggestions for versions other than 14.04 - purged bcmwl-kernel-source, installed linux-firmware-nonfree. This seemed to activate the Enet but not the WiFi. Here is some system info:

Code:

mike@OldLaptop:~$ uname -a

    Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge

Based on the sticky note in this forum, linux-firmware-nonfree is the right package to enable the WiFi for my card. And yet, no dice. I am just about ready to throw in the towel and go buy a supported USB WiFi dongle (they don't really break the bank these days - BTW a suggestion for an economical WiFi USB dongle would also be welcome), but it irks me to leave it without exlaining WHY this does not work. I have been around computers longer than I am willing to admit but am a shameful noob in Linux. Would appreciate suggestions on how to go digging to figure out what it is that my hardware and Linux configurations don't agree on.

Cheers,
Mike.

Poor wifi signal on 14.04, Samsung NP530U3C-A07UK

Hello,

After reinstalling 14.04 a couple of weeks ago, I've begun to notice that my laptop perceives a very poor wifi signal for my home network. Sometimes, the network can't be seen, and when it can be, often the attempts to connect to it are in vain. I'm able to connect to my college and work neworks. Perhaps it's because those networks don't have WPA, but turning off WPA for my home network didn't seem to help. Or perhaps it's because those networks are stronger, though my other devices at home don't seem to have a problem.

I've tried the usual tricks, including
Code:

# service network-manager restart
to no avail.

/etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.comf:
Code:

remove iwlwifi \
(/sbin/lsmod | grep -o -e ^iwlmvm -e ^iwldvm -e ^iwlwifi | xargs /sbin/rmmod) \
&& /sbin/modprobe -r mac80211

Any tips?

[ubuntu] Wireless on Trimslice stopped working

I have a Trimslice with and armel version of ubuntu running. The wireless was working ok but at some point it vanished completely, and the gui network admin says "The system network services are not compatable with this version". I have avoided upgrading as I am afraid that the armel version is being phased out and my applications may stop running if I go to armhf.

Here is the output of wireless-info.txt:

Hello guys and gals,

In my work environment, we use microsoft OS workstations and servers.
However I also like to use our older (slower) workstations to let users have access to our network drives, intranet pages etc.
So, I like to know is it possible to use ubuntu in microsoft windows server environment?
this will reuqire the user to login to our network and get network drives mapped, and possibly get the intranethome pages
lets not forget network printers.

thanks

[ubuntu] Getting ZTE MF665c working on 12.04

$

Hi guys,

I've been struggling getting a ZTE MF665c 3G USB modem working on Ubuntu 12.04.

Short facts:
- It works fine on my Mac, so no problems with the modem or sim card itself
- Ubuntu recognizes the modem, and can connect to the cellular network. It shows the signal strength, and also says "Connected to home network".

But I cannot ping, or have any connection to the outside world. Pinging e.g. 8.8.8.8 simply returns "Destination host unreachable"

I have tried putting the sim card in another 3G USB dongle I have, and that works just fine! So it must be the MF665c that has some issues with Ubuntu.

Have tried a lot of stuff, and I suspect that it's the Point-to-Point there's something wrong with, or the gateway isn't set correctly or something..

Here are some terminal outputs:

I've noticed two things:
1) The ip routing is different on the working device than on the ZTE
2) The ZTE seems to use the usb0 interface, while the working one is ppp0.

Shouldn't it use the Point-to-Point protocol on the ZTE modem too?

If anyone have suggestions on how to debug or fix this, just tell me, and I will provide you with terminal outputs.

if the command has worked, but not information shows up at this point.

If anyone could advise that would be great.


My main issue is how do i fix this:

[ubuntu] My wireless network disappeared

Hi,

Yesterday my ISP got some problem and I went out of Internet (TV box also had a crash but recovered) so I turned off the computer and went to sleep.

Today, I can't connect my Ubuntu computers to wireless, because my wireless connection is gone. The neighbour's wireless are still there.

So I turn off and on the Hub/router to see what was wrong, but everything seemed fine, the lights were as they are supposed to be. So I grabbed my Android phone, tried to connect, and it connected immediately. My wireless is there and it shows up.
So I went to check all computers in home:

My Ubuntu 14.04: my wireless isn't there (all others are).
My father's Ubuntu 12.04 with Windows 7 in dual boot: Windows recognizes and connects to our wireless, Ubuntu don't.
My brother's Window's 8: recognizes and connects to our wireless.
Android phones are working fine too.

So I have this 2 computers with (different versions of) Ubuntu that, out of no where, stopped recognizing my wireless network. That's so odd...

Is it an Ubuntu problem, or a problem from my network?

If it was a network problem, it should affect other systems too, I guess.
My if it were a problem with my computer (some driver problem or something I could had messed up), how could it happen for 2 different Ubuntu systems, at the same time?

I'm lost... :/

Thanks in advance

OpenVPN troubleshooting

So I have what I thought was a "working" configuration for my VPN setup. I have a Ubuntu 12.04 server at home that is the gateway to my home LAN (its got 2 NICs, one connected to internet, other to my LAN, obviously). I've been using it as an OpenVPN server to route all my web traffic and access my home LAN from my work laptop (screw you corporate web filters). This has been working for over a year. I recently bought a new laptop and want to do the same with this computer (both laptops running window 8.1). I made a new certificate for my new laptop, and used the same config that the working laptop uses. I connect to the vpn, everything looks good, but it's not. Once I'm connected to the VPN, I cannot ping anything, connect to the internet, etc.

The VPN network is 10.8.0.0 and my home network is 192.168.0.0. the working laptop always gets 10.8.0.6 and the new one gets 10.8.0.2. I've disabled the windows firewall on the new laptop to make sure that's not the issue. I'd assume my firewall/nat/ipforwarding/etc is all good on my server since the other client works fine.

Configs.

server.conf
Code:

port 1194
proto udp
topology subnet
dev tun
ca ca.cert
key key.key
dh dh1024.pem

server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0

keepalive 10 120

Code:

key "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\client1.key"
management 127.0.0.1 1194
management-hold
management-query-passwords
auth-retry interact

Anything else you would like me to post for you would be my pleasure. All input appreciated. Thanks.

P.S. I set all this up a year ago so I'm a little rusty on all my knowledge since it's been working and have not had to mess with it

[ubuntu] Outbound SMTP connectivity issue

$

0
I'm at a loss here as to what's causing outbound SMTP connections to fail on both my Ubuntu systems.

My server is running Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.2.0-69 (64bit), my laptop 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-35 (64bit).

I noticed that after a reboot the outbound mail queue on my server was filling up so I tested connectivity using telnet to port 25 of my provider's outbound smtp server.

From both Ubuntu systems telnet tells me it's connected but then hangs until it times out. No smtp server greeter is shown.

Wireshark shows that the greeter actually is received (including TCP Retransmissions)

However when I connect to port 25 on my server from the laptop it immediately returns my server's smtp greeter.

When I try the same telnet command from a Windows 2003 virtual machine (vmware player) it immediately returns the server's greeting/smtp banner (220)
This to me means that at least outbound smtp traffic is not blocked by my cable modem.

Any idea where to start looking?

Thnx.

VERY slow internet after installing Ubuntu 14.04

So, the wife and I decided to give Ubuntu a shot. Never used linux before. Formatted her computer, and installed Ubuntu. The wireless USB dongle we had, was incompatable. I purchased one on Amazon, a Panda PAU03. I plugged it into the USB port, booted the computer, and it allows me to connect to our WiFi, but it is EXTREMELY slow. I finally got Chrome installed, and ran a speed test at Ookla.com, and I was getting less than 1Mb/s.


Ubuntu 14.04 Client Max Protocol = SMB2 breaks browsing

$
0
0
I'm running 14.04 LTS with all updates and I'm trying to get SMB2 working on the client side to access Windows 7 shares on other computers. With the stock smb.conf file, nautilus and smbtree see all of my shares and connect without issue, but only at SMB1 (confirmed by Wireshark). When I add the "client max protocol = smb2" line to the [global] section of smb.conf, I don't see any shares through either nautilus or when running smbtree from the command line (it returns nothing). I can connect to the shares using nautilus' "connect to server" option by manually typing them in, and it does connect at SMB2. All of the windows machines browse fine and connect at SMB2, but to each other and a nas4free computer.

What's different about browsing with an SMB2 client that would cause this problem in Ubuntu?

I have a single workgroup (no domain) and I'm running a WINS server on a separate nas4free box, which is also my master browser. My Ubuntu box is pointed to the WINS server in smb.conf. I've been messing with this for some time and I can't come up with anything. If you need my smb.conf or any smbtree -d3 output or anything, just let me know. I just can't understand how everything works under SMB1 but not SMB2.

how to configure command line mail for reading new emails ?

Hi,

I am trying to read/send emails via command line.
I am a gmail user.

The sending part is working fine. I followed the instructions here:
https://rtcamp.com/tutorials/linux/u...ix-gmail-smtp/

I can not manage to get the receiving part working.
From searching online, I understood that simply typing "mail" should do it.
But this return "No mail for <myname>", while I know I have new mail on my gmail box.
This is not so surprising, because I did not perform any configuration for receiving mails.

I could not find online any help on how to configure mail to get the mails.

Many thanks

[ubuntu] No WiFi or Ethernet after update of Ubuntu 12.04 on Dell Inspiron 1501

$

I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 running dual boot Ubuntu 12.04 with Windows Vista. I just completed updates in Ubuntu and have lost my WiFi connection. Having experienced WiFi connectivity problems in the past, I connected the laptop to my ethernet connection so that I could redownload the drivers and the laptop shows I have an eithernet connection, but I cannot get any data to pass trough the connection. All attempts to use a browser return a no network error. Any command that uses an internet connection fails. In my Network connection box under the wireless tab, it does show "firmware missing."

Any help to resolve this problem is greatly appreciated.

Compaq Mini 110 - mobile broadband - Internal SIM/WAN
Hi,


Please help me, my netbook can't use mobile broadband! Attending university and need it in school.

Issue: Mobile broadband/Internal SIM card
OS*: Ubuntu 12.04.5*
Computer: Qualcomm Gobi1000 HP un2400-module
Hardware: Compaq Mini 110 - 110c-1010SO

*OS: Ubuntu 12.04.5 (or higher if this solves the problem)
SIM-card tested in a usb modem, and it works.

Please help me if you can. If this means I have to use a whole new distro I don't mind! This Netbook is what I have and I bought a 240Gb SSD and maximum memory to make it as good as possible. I'm attending university and I need this computer to work. I solved all other issues. I got online banking, skype, cairo-dock, open-office etc. to work but I need the internal modem/WAN/SIM-card to run. There's no room for a external modem and it's not possible to run win7 on this computer. It came with XP, but XP is not being serviced anymore, as you might know. And I really like and prefer Linux/Ubuntu 12.04 or higher to work with this SIM/WAN. I would really like to keep Linux!

So please help me solve this issue, if you can. I've posted this problem some time ago and there's two other who has asked me if we solved the problem. So we are several who really needs this issue to be solved.

To begin with, I can tell you that the internal modem/WAN doesn't appear when doing "lspci" or "lsusb".
