[ubuntu] no wifi adapter in ubuntu 18.05

Hi, yesterday I installed Ubuntu 18.05 in dual boot with Windows 10 but it doesn't recognize mi wifi card (In windows I have no problem). I've tried reinstalling and other things but it's the same. Can you help me plzzzzzzz. I am semi noob in this, and here's is the wireless information script that I read in another post that it's important: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Hhv5PtRG6X/.

Thanks! :D

Can I improve my routing speeds with dual gigabit?

$
0
0
I have an Ubuntu 18.04 server which is running as my router, and I'm using WebMin to configure things.

So I have an onboard gigabit port as well as a dual-gigabit card. My onboard port is used as my WAN connection while one of my NIC gigabit ports is used for LAN routing.

Anyway, I realized at work that I can use two gigabit ports on a NAS to get an effective total of 2Gb (though not to a single device) and both ports appear on the network as a single IP. I'm not sure how this works on a 1Gb switch.

I would think 1Gb would be the total bandwidth available across all devices combined. However my own 24-port Netgear switch reports a "48Gbps" total bandwidth, so clearly I didn't learn something right.

But otherwise, is there a way I can use my two gigabit ports on my server to potentially speed up my total routing capability? I hadn't looked much into this kind of load-balancing. Most of what I've used has been load balancing WAN connections, not LAN connections.

[ubuntu] Unable to reconnect the mobile broadband, if signal drops for more than 3 hours

Hi,

I am working on Ubuntu 16.04 with Telit module for mobile broadband. I am facing the problem in reconnecting the mobile broadband once it lost the connection more than 3 hours.

I was able to use the mobile broadband until there is signal drop.If signal drop occurs for a long period(more than 3 hours, it is varying at times), mobile broadband is unable to re-establish the connection.As I have selected auto connect option in the Mobile broadband connection GUI, it is reconnecting if signal drop is less than 2-3 hours

When I checked the system logs, I found that Network manager is trying to reconnect for some time, if it is not succeed in reconnecting it is signaling modem manager to kill the pppd daemon and switch to simple connect rather than using pppd. Apart from it is removing some other modules. I have attached the syslog's while booting and terminating the mobile broadband connection.

I tried with restarting network manager, modem manager and pppd daemon from systemctl but nothing worked, Can any one suggest the solution to fix my problem.

Panda Wireless PAU06 Not Working, Ubuntu 18.04

I'm new to Linux, just having created a Live USB to test moving away from Windows 7. When I boot in Ubuntu, my Panda Wireless USB device (PAU06) doesn't seem to work - doesn't light up, nothing. The company page says their devices should be plug-and-play with "Linux" but...not so much for me, and the driver they offer to download looks to be a Fedora driver, not Ubuntu.

This is what I got from lsusb:

Bus 003 Device 001 ID: 1d6b:002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 007 Device 001 ID: 1d6b:001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

The flash drive shows up, but the Panda Wireless thing doesn't (or my mouse, but that's a different unsolved issue).

What should I do next?

i have looked this up and all most all the posts and information shows different windows than what i am getting a window that looks like this after selecting the import a saved VPN configuration and selecting the *.ovpn file: https://imgur.com/3hDljrU i can not for the life of me get figure out what to do about this.

i am only attempting to do this because the vpn application the service provides me uses gksudo for the privilege escalation and 18.04 has deprecated that package and i don't want to go through the process of setting it back up because it is an old software and to get the pkexec working with the application so i don't have to have an annoying terminal in the background is something i don't want to learn as it is more annoying and a lot of research to do.

i'm running xubuntu 18.04 x64

i'll edit with whatever other info you need to help just let me know

WiFi works inconsistently on ThinkPad x220i

Hello,

I just installed latest Ubuntu on the old ThinkPad x220i and at the beginning WiFi didn't work at all until I ran sudo apt-update sudo apt dist-upgrade. It worked very well shortly after commands but stopped in 5 minutes. Right now it either works very slowly under 1mbps or doesn't work at all. The wired connection works good.
I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

[SOLVED] nmap more than 4096 hosts

$
0
0
I'm trying to find out the ip address a piece of equipment with no documentation has been configured too (attempts to check over the serial connection didn't work.) I am connected point to point via an ethernet cable so doing a scan for active hosts it should be the only result (assuming it responds to Ping.)

Code:

nmap -v -e enp0s25 -sn 192.168.0.0/16
use nmap, verbose mode, select ethernet adapter and no port scan (ping only) on the 192.168.x.x range using the /16 CIDR block.

BUT 256*256 would give total number of hosts to be scanned as 65,536. nmap says:
Code:

Scanning 4096 hosts [2 ports/host]
So can I actually scan the whole range in one go? I'm not even certain it is on the 192.168 subnet (but it's most likely) it might also be in 10.x.x.x somewhere. I had seen an example ending with "192.168.0.0.16 10.0.0.0/8" but that still says it's scanning 4096 hosts.

Will it just work despite what it reports or an I missing something?


EDIT: Patience is a virtue! Seems it doers it in 5096 blocks and then moves onto the next block once the previous is completed. Once the scan is done in full and I have thus confirmed this to myself I will mark as Solved.

Hi,

I made a fresh installation of ubuntu 18.04 on my desktop. Wifi is working but too slow(5mbps) as compared to what i am getting in my another laptop(40-45 mbps).
As mentioned in the forum , my pastebin url is http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4w2qxHsJGs/

I am new to ubuntu , tried to troubleshoot as per the suggestions mentioned in the forum but made a mess so had to reinstall a fresh copy :-)

would really appreciate your suggestions.

Why can't I Ping from the ethernet port?

Pinging usually works fine, it does from the WiFi anyway. But I don't seem to be able to get it to do so through the ethernet connection, whether I specify it or if I disable everything else to force it.

Code:

$ ping -I enp0s25 10.42.0.81
PING 10.42.0.81 (10.42.0.81) from 10.42.0.1 enp0s25: 56(84) bytes of data.

But I managed to get a point2point nmap to work as PoC.
Code:

$ nmap -T5  -v -e enp0s25 -sn 10.42.0.0/24

Unable to Access Windows LAN from Ubuntu

(Running Ubuntu on an HP desktop w/ 8GB RAM, connected by wired Ethernet to a LAN of 3 Windows machines)

Whenever Ubuntu boots, it displays a window as follows:
"Network service discovery disabled
Your current network has a .local domain,
which is not recommended and incompatible
with the Avahi network service discovery.
The service has been disabled."

What is a ".local domain?" This is my first news about one! How can I remove the apparent detection of this ".local domain?"

The windows machines operate well with each other. They appear under "Network" in the Ubuntu file manager but attempting to access them (double-clicking their icons) produces a request for login and password, which puzzles me because they are configured to access each others' files freely. No password has been assigned.

Could someone point me to the proper documentation?

using smbclient mput so that it copies symbolic link (not the target of link)

$

Is there a way I can run mput under smbclient in such a way that it just copies the symbolic link itself rather than copying in the full target of the symbolic link?

I guess another question I have would be if there is a way to have smbclient's mput to resume on failure? I am trying to recursively move some large directories (500Gb+) and I am getting frequent premature stops. Would be very useful if I could just pick up where I left off

Thanks,

[ubuntu] ping: unknown host google.com

I changed ISPs. The now modem, when run with a Ethernet cable directly to the 'puter works. When the same cable goes to a unmanaged switch, no 'net. Pinging returns:
Code:

ping: unknown host google.com

Searching for no eth0 exists. I see an edit of /ect/init/rc.conf where the OP adds eth0 to the runlevel. But looking at my rc.conf, I don't know where that would go.

1. Is this the correct fix, adding eth0? (that's a zero number, on-screen here it looks like: m,n,O --the letter).
2. I ask as Ubuntu (16.04) has assigned the wired interface name to be: enp6s0.
3. There is NO router here, only an unmanaged switch.
4. When the switch has an Ethernet cable from the modem to the switch, the 'net is enabled. When a (extra) cable runs from the switch to the 'puter, the entire net goes down. What is going on here and how do I correct this?

USB Wifi Adapter Not Responding

Hello,

Couple of months back I got a USB WiFi adapter to use because the built in card in my laptop has been dreadfully slow in public places like my school's library. It's the
OURLINK 600Mbps AC600 Dual Band USB WiFi Dongle I got from Amazon. It's worked fantastic on my Windows 10 OS since I got it, but when I boot into my Ubuntu OS it's unable to turn on and operate at all.

I've looked around and tried to install the driver for the particular chipset in the dongle, but I've hit some bumps along the way and, frankly speaking since I'm new to Linux I'm unsure if I even installed it properly.

I have gone ahead and used lsusb to figure out what my computer sees with when I plug it in (it's the one that's in bold):

Code:

As well as sudo tail -n 0 -f /var/log/syslog to keep track of it as soon as I plug it in:

Code:

Any help would be appreciated it, and if nothing works well any good recommendations on a better WiFi dongle?

Cheers!

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Wifi Trouble

Use WiFi internet while ethernet connected to network

$
0
0
I have some devices I wish to monitor and administer which are on a physical network and not connected in any way to the outside world. I would like to be able to still browse the internet via my WiFi connection while the ethernet is connected to the network these devices are on but as soon as I enable my ethernet connection I can no longer see the outside world! How do I get Ubuntu to use the correct device/interface for the internet? Windows and OSX both just do this automatically!! As it is usually reported if a network is connected to the internet or not why does this not happen with Ubuntu?

Limiting my browser to only use one device or another will not suffice as most of the devices are monitored and administered over http web interfaces! Thus the browser needs to check both connections when an address is entered.

I recently installed 18.04 server on a Sabertooth 990FX motherboard with an onboard r8169 gigabit ethernet card.

When I try to find the device name with ls /dev/e* there are no results.

dmesg indicates "enp8s0: renamed from eth0"

What is going on? Why is the network device vanishing after being renamed?
