Wifi not working in Lubuntu 13.04

Post by robertford893 »

Thanks for the help in advance. I have recently installed Lubuntu 13.04 on my netbook. I cannot get the wireless to work on my lubuntu install. I have attached the wifi stats to this thread. (iwconfig and lshw -c network).Realtek rtl8187se is the adapter.

It sees the network and I can attempt to connect but it always tells me the password is bad (when it is not). Even with no password I get the same. I tried Linux Mint 15 MATE and kubuntu and the same thing happened. After searching, I found and tried many solutions: install or reinstall ndiswrapper then use official windows xp driver, ignore IPv6 and nothing worked. What's going on here?

Code: Select all

iwconfig

wlan0 802.11b/g ESSID:"Lechuga"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.422 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
Bit Rate:54 Mb/s
Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off Link Quality=0/100 Signal level=0 dBm Noise level=0 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

Code: Select all

sudo lshw -c network

Lubuntu is known for special wireless connection problems. Have a look at http://lxlinux.com/#16 to see if something there might help.
