n900 wifi problem
 
Hi everyone;

I have problem with my n900. The problem is my device doesn't see my wifi and also other wireless connections. When i search the wifi, it starts searching but finds nothing. How can i solve this problem?

Thanks for everyone...

You could try bringing it down and up by

Code:

sudo /sbin/ifconfig wlan0 down
Code:

sudo /sbin/ifconfig wlan0 up
If sudo asks for a password you could also first gain root and then do these commands without sudo in front.

If that does not do anything, could you paste the output of

Code:

/sbin/ifconfig

Question, have you got wifi-switcher installed?

You might have a module not loading, for some reason.
Check lsmod for wl12xx (there should be two mentions: mac80211 and cr7.

About the long output, you could shorten it by using grep

/sbin/ifconfig | grep wlan0

Could you also give the output of dmesg, preferably in a file that you can attach to a posting here on the board

Code:

dmesg

I haven't got any wireless switcher. I uploaded the screen of long output.

Please paste the output to a file using the > operator

Code:

dmesg > /home/user/MyDocs/dmesg_output.txt
Code:

lsmod > /home/user/MyDocs/lsmod_output.txt
Code:

/sbin/ifconfig > /home/user/MyDocs/ifconfig_output.txt
When done, you can find those txt files in MyDocs, after which you can attach them to your reaction when you post here.

There is a little paperclip icon above the edit box. Only visible when you go advanced (or quote &reply).
