I’m dealing similar issue with a Rock64 SBC (a Raspberry Pi variant) that has poor support from it’s makers, and virtually no support from The Linux distro sites, because it’s not a “certified” version for support. This is the way of the Linux, Ubuntu, Debian world. So as a noob, not knowing what this instruction is doing, and no explanation of what it’s supposed to be doing, I’m stuck.
#Computer not finding wifi full#
Sudo mount -o loop ubuntu-*.iso /media/cdrom, it fails returning “failed to setup loop device for ubuntu-*.iso I tried it with the full name of the latest ver as well).
#Computer not finding wifi driver#
Trying to get the wifi working on an older ThinkPad I got to the point of the possibility of driver issues I followed the instructions to download an iso image but when I get to the instruction: I found this post while searching for answers to several issues I’ll stay on topic and talk of the wifi issues. Add to that, when a newcomer to the “game” tries to ask questions to gain knowledge, many of the forums reply with arrogance as if you were a bother. But GUI versions of like Ubuntu are works of open source volunteers who don’t have access to all the issues to be seen. It took years for developers to realize that doing things with a GUI was quicker and easier. I’ll still have a bit of Terminal Fever, but slowly getting over with what YOU SHARED HERE! So thanks again, and maybe the neighbors thank you to, not getting hit with a laptop, or scaring their pets!.įor me and just IMHO, much of the Linux world is a process of re-inventing the wheel. lol!… or I maybe used this DELL for Book of Worlds Records, laptop throwing WIN! Windose what the 3 re-installs Win10Pro, and 4 re-installs W7Pro and ALL with admin wifi updates OFF, my Win updated anyway, and never rebooted all 7 TIMES… So I uninstalled all the newly installed thingys, KDE Connect and Rebooted. Have Ubuntu 18.04.06 and escaped Windose 4 months ago and tonight, “TRIED” to KDE connect, and using that to tether to my droid, with 4G speeds, and POOFY. Routers can make a huge difference rebooting them, connect first with ethernet, etc. My Linux test laptop is 11 years old, the server has a Xeon processor wide gap between them.
Good advice here for those with problems, although I’m not sure why they would occur. Networking was the least of my issues nothing worked! Minimal Ububtu 20 is running our home server now I despise gnome but networking, wired and wireless presented no problems at set up or after.

The only distros with netorking issues were two headless server installs that were bare bones, add all your own features and I honestly didn’t know how to deal with them at the time. Our R7000, third party firmware, worked fine, also. Our current router is a Netgear R7800 with third party firmware, since Netgear’s firmware is beyond awful, unstable data collecting junk. Everything from 10 year old cards to brand new ones. Never had to do anything beyond entering pwds no CLI stuff at all.

Seems OK for the last year or so although ethernet is still clunky.Īfter years of Hope-Springs-Eternal with Windows, the speed Linux connects a new install to wi-fi was so good, it seemed suspicious at first.
#Computer not finding wifi update#
Windows network stack was a roulette wheel for years, never knew if an update would flake out wi-fi or not. Networking may be Linux’s biggest strength. Wow, Windows has all the wi-fi issues, not Linux! Out of a dozen or so distros I’ve used, none have had wi-fi or networking in general, problems. I'm curious if "Studio" even supports WiFi. when I posted to the “Studio” help board< I haven't yet seen a reply.
