What about it? I can connect reliably on my ubuntu 12.10 partition.

grahammechanical,

I am fairly certain this is a driver issue. From what I've read, you shouldn't use a driver version below what your kernel version is (from the compat-wireless page:

In case it matters, my connection is WPA encrypted. I have no problems connecting to it from my 12.10 partition or my win8 partition.

praseodym, thanks for your reply.

I tried what you said.

The output of the commands is as follows:



$ echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf...

I'm about 100% sure it's not a router or ISP problem. On the same computer on a windows 8 partition and an ubuntu 12.10 partition everything works fine.

Bump.

Could anybody give me some place to start at least? Would installing an earlier version of the driver help?

Greetings,

I have a separate partition which I am going to do a fresh install of 12.10 on shortly to see if I can get any network connections to work on that, but I would really like to fix my current install...

Hello,

I upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 yesterday or the day before. I assumed that there would be some hiccups since it's such a new release, but I did not expect to completely lose my ability to...

I am back.

For whatever reason with 10.10 installed the problem is gone. This still kind of sucks because 10.10 isn't supported any more, but for the time being at least my machines are both...

I am wondering if there is a way to make selection of files work like it did in Windows XP (and maybe Win 7, I'm not really sure).

Anybody have any ideas about this?
