Trådlöst

In some cases, the wireless network device may need a restricted driver in order to operate. The best way to check this is to open the application named Jockey. To open Jockey, go to K menuApplicationsSystemHardware Drivers. If the wireless network device requires a restricted driver, Jockey will provide that information and assist with selecting, installing, and activating the proper driver. When this step is completed, wireless connections can be configured. The machine must be rebooted before the newly installed, restricted driver will make the wireless device work.

Procedure 2. Anslut till ett trådlöst nätverk

  1. Säkerställ att den trådlösa enheten är på. De flesta moderna bärbara datorerna har en fysisk omkopplare för trådlöst.

  2. Click the Networking Interface in the System Tray area and select Manage Connections....

  3. If a connection has been made previously to the selected network, connect to that network by clicking on it in the Wireless tab. If no connection has been made to the desired network previously, continue with the following procedure:

  4. Klicka på knappen Lägg till....

  5. Enter the SSID of the new network. It can be entered manually, if known. If not, press the Scan button to search for the network.

  6. Ange all övrig information som krävs för anslutningen, särskilt om ägaren har etablerat trådlös säkerhet för nätverket.

If the machine has been connected to a wireless network previously, Kubuntu™ can automatically connect to the network where it is available. This selection option should be chosen when the initial connection to the network is being configured.

När både trådbundet och trådlöst nätverk finns tillgängligt, används som standard det trådbundna.
