Ubuntu 13.10 no internet

Sat Nov 30 13:09:56 UTC 2013

The version Ubuntu upgraded to 13.10, first the internet with 13.04 worked well.It's the upgrade that couses the problem.I see Realtek RTL8101E by Terminal lspci, and by iwconfig 'no wireless extensions'.The system is not connected wired or wireless and the swith is on.

        All drivers are listed by

        $ lsmod

        You get information by

        $ modinfo DRIVERNAME

        and by

        https://startpage.com/ and search for the
         DRIVERNAME

        You didn't answer this question:

        When a neighbor ask me to help with a Windows laptop, I didn't
        know about this

        switch, but I read the Windows message window that mentioned the
        switch. IOW

        without knowledge about Windows and without knowing that some or
        all laptops

        have such a switch, I could solve the issue within seconds,
        that's why I just

        want to ensure, that you checked the button.

        Regards,

        All laptops have a way to disable wireless, in some such as my
        lenovo I press F5 and different computers use different buttons
        so you may have to check computer documentation.

    I don't know if it will help or not, but I wrote the following bash
    file for my own use.

    You can change the IP addresses of the cable modem and the router.

    If you have neither then '#' out the appropriate lines and continue.
    The checks are

    out of normal sequence because I wrote this on the fly.

    You just have to copy-and-paste into a file ending with .sh and make
    it executable.
