Question about configuring wireless on Thinkpad x61

[nkcser]

Hi there,

I'm now using an X61 thinkpad laptop, the wireless card is PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection and my ubuntu is 8.04. Actually after I upgraded to 8.04 from 7.10, i can use my wireless, it suddenly stopped working this morning.

After the command "sudo lshw -C network", i got the following output:

Many thanks,

Please be a little more specific about how the wireless stopped working. Can you see networks but not connect? Can you see no networks at all? Did you try rebooting? Are you using NetworkManager?

Please also post the output of:


iwconfig

and


ifconfig
