Dear Friends,
Greetings!

I have dual boot (Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04). In windows, wifi and internet is working well but in ubuntu, wifi is not enabled and I am not able to connect it with internet. I have also tried with Live usb ubuntu and reinstalling of ubuntu in laptop.

Anybody have any solution to enable wifi so that I can use internet.

Thanks.
Best regards,

Summit

summit,

Open a Terminal and type these commands separately, pressing enter after each one:

Post the output in CODE (#) tags (above text box).

We need to know a lot more about your set-up in order to help.

1) What wifi card do you have? You can find out quickly by opening a terminal and typing lspci.

2) Has the kernel recognised your card and loaded the correct driver for it? The dmesg command will list all the kernel's boot-up messages but it's a big list and network cards are usually recognised right at the end. That's the bit of the output you need to check. Post the relevant lines here.

3) If the card has been recognised, has the interface actually come up? Look in /sys/class/net or run ifconfig as suggested above. There should be an interface with a name beginning with w: it might be wlan0 or something like wl1p25s.

4) If the interface is up, the problem lies between it and your wifi router. We shall need to know what networking software you are using (NetworkManager? Wicd? Something else?)

Once you know where in this sequence the blockage is occurring, we can start to help you fix it.

So you've got an ethernet interface but no wifi interface. This probably means that the failure is at step 2. You still haven't told us what card you have. Find that out and then look at the end of dmesg as suggested to find out what the kernel has made of your card.

A common cause of this sort of problem is cards like the Broadcom ones, which require firmware to load before they can be used. Fortunately the kernel is very informative about such problems and will tell you if it was asked to load firmware and couldn't find it.

Hi...

We still need more information concerning your wireless adapter. If you can, please connect an ethernet cable from your modem/router (to establish an internet connection,) then open a terminal and enter these commands...

Then post the results (or a link to them) in your next reply. If you are unable to use an ethernet cable, you can either transfer the information using a thumb drive or you can post screenshots of the results of these commands...

If this is a laptop, please also include the results of...

If you are using a USB adapter, please include these results...

Thanks!

summit,

This LQ "sticky" on Broadcom wifi should help:

Hi...

We don't even know if the OP has a broadcom adapter yet, unless I missed something.

Regards...

$ sudo ifconfig -a

If that doesn't show one that starts with w, then your wifi driver is not preset or not working. You could be missing some firmware or other things.

$ dmesg | grep -i firmware

Otherwise to verify the existance of the hardware.

$ lspci -nnk

$ lsusb

Also, you can pipe the output to file which you can cut and paste instead of taking screen shots / pictures. Albeit hard to post to the internet without an internet connection.

$ lspci -nnk 2>&1 | tee output.log

Similar to the thread you opened months ago, where you were asked numerous times for details/information, but didn't provide much.

If it's the same laptop as mentioned there, you have an Intel wifi card, probably with the integrated bluetooth. Numerous solutions exist:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...CardsSupported
https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubunt...are-check.html

And...
CLEAN YOUR ROOM!
It'll help with concentration. Make the bed also, helps remove tension which leads to better focus.

I think there's good advice earlier in this thread asking for the PCI status to determine what, if any WIFI adapter the system has.

At this point it's best to let the OP answer and also to stay on topic if there are any further replies.

Dear Friends,

Sorry for inconvenience. I was not able to access internet so I was sending screen shots from my phone but some how someone don't like this so I have no other option to send all this.

I have made a text file and please find the attachment. All of you have tried to help me. Now, I have copy paste the output of the commands which was asked above.

Again extremely sorry friends.

Thanks.
With best regards,
Summit.
