    Re: Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't recognize wireless

    I think maybe I don't have network manager. I don't see it at all anywhere.

    Do you have an up/down arrow looking thing next to the
    envelope...upper right corner? If yes..click that and
    see what it says.
    thanks.

    Re: Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't recognize wireless

    I'm actually using Lubuntu for my desktop. So, there's no envelope but shouldn't it be on the task bar if I have it? Is it the app that says network connections and lets you edit network connections? If that is it, there's no option for enable wireless only "Enable Networking".

    Re: Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't recognize wireless

    Still no wireless. Should I have gotten output after "sudo modprobe rt2800pci"?

    Re: Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't recognize wireless

    Getting no output on that command is a good thing.
    lets look at a couple more things and then possibly go
    a different direction.
    please post the output of..
    Code:
    lsmod
    ifconfig
    iwconfig
    cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | grep blacklist
    thanks.

    Re: Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't recognize wireless

    Hi, lets see what happens when we use the
    driver that we blacklisted. My good friend dr chilli555
    has informed me that sometimes it works better with it.
    please open a terminal ..ctrl/alt/t
    and do..
    Code:
    sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    insert this..
    Code:
    blacklist rt2800pci
    blacklist rt2800lib
    blacklist rt2x00pci
    blacklist rt2x00lib
    and be sure to remove this.
    Code:
    blacklist rt2860sta
    save and close gedit
    BOOT
    then do..
    Code:
    sudo modprobe -rfv rt2800pci
    sudo modprobe rt2860sta
    then..
    Code:
    dmesg | grep rt2
    cross your toes..
