What is the chipset of your wireless card? <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 18, 2010 at 6:12 PM, Ashim Kapoor <<a href="mailto:ashimkapoor@gmail.com">ashimkapoor@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">Dear Sir, My previous version of Ubuntu ran the wireless internet fine, but let me check and get back to you. Also I noticed a small wireless sign with an ! mark on it in the top right panel in my office but both wired and wireless refused to work. I think this icon was due to WICD. This icon does not even appear in my home. Thank you, Ashim.<div><div></div><div class="h5"> <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 18, 2010 at 10:02 AM, d~_*b <<a href="mailto:theunknownandrew@gmail.com" target="_blank">theunknownandrew@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"> <div><div></div><div>On 18 October 2010 09:46, Ashim Kapoor <<a href="mailto:ashimkapoor@gmail.com" target="_blank">ashimkapoor@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I installed WICD but it still says no wireless networks found.
