    could you report?
    sudo lshw -C Network
    lsmod
    sudo iwconfig

    Sorry,
    go to applications->accesories and terminal. Then in this "feared" terminal, run next commands:
    1)
    sudo lshw -C Network (will ask you your password, enter your user password)
    2)
    lsmod
    3)
    sudo iwconfig

    Copy and paste the output of each one.

    Regards
