    I have newly installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop. Wired connection works fine but wireless connections times out. Here is the content from syslog:

    I have looked at different forums tried everything but it doesn't solve this problem. I have hp envy 15t laptop. Here is the wireless-info.txt of my box: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=9bpLnatb

    My router SSID is DDW3655F. Any help in solving this would be great. I really need this working for my college project.

    Thanks again

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    Welcome to Ubuntu Forums banand!

    Please try this -
    Code:
    sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off
    Then try to connect again. If it doesn't help, try a driver parameter temporarily (it will be reset on next boot, if helps, we can make it permanent) -
    Code:
    sudo modprobe -rv iwlwifi
    sudo modprobe -v iwlwifi 11n_disable=8
    If it still fails, please follow the instructions in this post to download and run 'wireless_script' (experimental version) and post back the report it generates : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=13024222

    Please note that it is a slightly different script that provides a little more info that may be useful.

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    I tried both and it didn't work. It still times out. Here is the output of the wireless_script you requested: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=JA2F9ZF4

    Sorry for the late reply.

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    Please post the report with both the suggested changes applied. None of them is showing as applied in the current report.

    After applying the changes, I also suggest to delete the currently saved connection profile from Network Manager, and let it create a fresh one by itself.

    Sorry about that my bad. I rebooted the machine before running the script.

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    Just to confirm, have you tried the wifi connection without the Ethernet cable plugged in? Network Manager may not attempt a wireless connection if a cable connection is detected. So disconnect the Ethernet cable > reboot > retry to connect to your wireless AP. Keep the Ethernet cable unplugged all this while.

    If that doesn't help, try these -

    1) Firstly, you seem to have been unnecessarily busy with Realtek drivers while your system has no Realtek card in it. So, please delete the conf files you have created -
    Code:
    sudo rm /etc/modprobe.d/{modprobe,rtl8188ee}.conf
    2) We have recently discovered that the iwlwifi driver may go into an infinite connection attempt loop if the driver is reloaded on a running system. Therefore, please try the parameter in permanent mode -
    Code:
    echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=8" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
    Reboot and retry to connect, and report back. We'll try other things based on your feedback.

    I tried connecting to the wifi without ethernet cable and it didnt connect. Then I tried the two commands that you had suggested and rebooted, but I still couldnt connect.

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    Assuming the new connection profile is automatically saved in Network Manager, please try saving the authentication info in it (under "Wireless Security" tab) if you haven't already.

    If it is your own router, please make sure the regional setting (if it is manageable) is set to "US" (United States) since your Ubuntu is using the same regional settings. If required, we can change it in Ubuntu itself.

    Again in the router, try fixing the channel bandwidth to 20 MHz if it is currently set to 20/40 MHz auto mode. Same for the channel - fix it to 1 or 11 if it is set to 'auto'.

    With (or without, if you don't have admin access to the router) these changes, if required, try some other driver parameters -

    1) Try software encryption instead of hardware, and disable wifi/bluetooth coexistence by adding "swcrypto=1" and "bt_coex_active=N" parameters to the already existing one -
    Code:
    sudo sed -i '/^options/ s/.*/& swcrypto=1 bt_coex_active=N/' /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
    Like before, test the effect after a reboot.

    2) If still no change, try completely disabling 'N' channel support by changing value '8' to '1' in "11n_disable=8" parameter -
    Code:
    sudo sed -i '/^options/ s/8/1/' /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
    Again, reboot and retry.

    If success, please let us know which of the steps worked, so we can possibly simplify it. If still failure, please report back with a fresh wifi script report.

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    Hello,

    The wifi security password is saved with the connection. Unfortunately I dont have access to the router. I tried both the changes and the wifi didnt connect after the reboots. Here is the wirelessinfo.txt

    Sorry for the delay, thanks for your patience.

    Re: Authentication timed out with Ubuntu 14.04

    I think I'm out of wits for now, have asked for help.

    By the way, the kernel version has been upgraded since your above post. Is the situation still the same?

    Please show us the kernel versions currently installed -
    Code:
    dpkg -l | grep linux-image
    Varun
    Help others by marking threads as [SOLVED], if they are. (See how)
