Wireless Internet not working....?

[nihil]

I recently installed Ubuntu.


I just installed ndiswrapper so I could install my wireless PCI card drivers.


I did that and it is recognized and so is the network I want to connect to.


But for some reason, it just wont connect. It will spend a long time trying to connect, but then just says "disconnected".


What could be the problem? It's not like I have a bad connection or anything. My internet on Windows is fast.


Thanks!

It would really help if you told us what wireless adapter you have You may not have to use ndiswrapper for your particular card. So this information would be very helpful! Also is youe ESSID hidden sometimes you have to unhide it just to connect for the first time.

Cheers!
