Its working now. Thank you so much. I would like to learn troubleshooting in ubuntu so that i may be able to help others in this forum like you did to me. Is there any site or book available where i can learn??
Anyway, thanks a to..im connected to the wireless now! :)
Awesome! I'm very glad it's working.
I know there are many books about Ubuntu generally but I'm not sure there is a trouble-shooting book. Maybe I should write one!!
I just read posts and learn from others. I Google warning and error messages. I experiment on an old laptop I have. Gradually, over many years, I've learned more and more.
Please use thread tools at the top to mark Solved.
Yep..ll do it. Nice knowing u by the way :)
Thank you very much chilli555, oddly I had almost the same problem as the OP, you were able to open my eyes too. Good walkthrough.
Maybe you can help me??
