I have upgraded from 16.10 to 17.04 and now I am not able to connect to any WiFi Hotspots that I create.  Anytime I click on the connect button, it says Configuring but does not connect. At times it tries to connect and soon after deactivates the connection.

I can connect to WiFi now using the fix mentioned in answer to this question: .   But when I click on "Connect to Hidden WiFi Network" and choose to start the hot-spot setup, I see this notification and it doesn't start.    How should I resolve this?

How do I change the default wifi network that Ubuntu connects to on startup? There is an unsecured public wifi network in my range, as well as my own home WPA secured wifi that I want to use by default. However, on startup Ubuntu always connects to the unsecured one. Sometimes I forget to reconnect to the other one, which is very dangerous.   I am running a default setup of Ubuntu Destkop 11.10 with Gnome 3. I have looked under network settings but I can't find a 'default' option.

I can't connect to wifi with my laptop but I can connect to wifi with my phone, ps3 and ipod etc. I can actually connect to the internet with my laptop when I use a cable to connect to the router. Does anyone know what my problem is?  My connection worked perfectly before, but 3 days ago it just stopped working. I have windows 8. In the corner it just gives me a perfect bar connection and I cant find any solution on internet.  Thank you

I've tried everything I can think of. Resetting the router, changing the channel number and band.   The internet connection is fine, and then just hangs for a minute or 2, then returns to normal.   The wifi icon remains connected, and I have the latest 10.10.4 update installed. At first I thought it was a DNS bug with Yosemite, and have played with the settings such as changing DNS provider, changing the IPV6 to IPV4 only etc.  Driving me nuts. Has anyone had a similar problem? I've checked the surroundings with wifi scanners and have chosen the best channel available.     One thing I have noticed, it seems a lot more reliable on 5GHz as opposed to 2.4Ghz It seems to affect my Macbook Pro Retina 13in Early 2015 a lot more than the other devices on the network. I'm using a Virginmedia  1.

I'm a relatively new macOS user. Let me try to describe the problem I'm facing as succinctly as possible  Just this morning, when I'm unable to get any internet connection even though WiFi is connected (full strength). All my other devices has no issues when connected to the same network (it's my home network)  I've logged into the router, and checked, there are no blacklisted IP/MAC addresses.  Additional information   I'm using a tMBP 15" for over a year I've had no issues with any WiFi connectivity to my home network before today. ping from terminal doesn't work as well. I'm able to connect to my phone's hotspot, and get internet from my MBP.  I have bootcamp set up. When I boot into Windows, I'm able to get internet access through my home WiFi   How can I troubleshoot this to get to the root cause of the problem?

Yesterday I upgraded my Ubuntu by SSH but before I finished it, I restarted my computer. I know that was not very smart. Anyway now I don't have internet connection, the WiFi or Ethernet is not recognized.  When I try on the latest version installed, the mice didn't work. When I try with previous version and go in gnome-network manager it's said:     The system network service is not compatible with this version   Another thing is when I comeback to the remote computer and look at the SSH terminal the process have stopped at:  Setting up desktop-file-utils (0.20-0ubuntu2) ...  Configuration file `/etc/gnome/defaults.list'  ==&gt; Modified (by you or by a script) since installation. ==&gt; Package distributor has shipped  an updated version. What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are: Y or I:install the package maintainer's  version N or O : keep your currently-installed version D :  show the differences between the versions Z : start a shell  to examine the situation The default action is to keep your  current version. * defaults.list (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?  Write failed: Broken pipe   Is there any simple solution other than I having to reinstall my system?

After upgrade to iOS 13 from 12.4, I noticed that personal hotspot isn't working anymore over Wi-Fi (via USB is ok).  Tested on two computers with Win7. The PC can connect to Wi-Fi, but no valid IP (IPv4) is assigned and no connection is working to internet.

I'm having issues with my macbook pro OS X 10.7.5.  It used to connect to the wifi router (D-Link N300, DIR=615) no problems.  But for the past several weeks, I haven't been able to at all.  What pops up when I select my wifi network from the list:   "Failed to join "network" A connection timeout occured".   What happens when I try to enter my password manually:   "Connection timeout"   What I've tried to do as solutions:   Google Restart router by pressing reset &amp; refresh button Delete System &amp; User (Login) Keychain access Network > Gear symbol by the + and - bottom left of the screen > Set Service Order > Drag Wifi to the top

I have installed Ubuntu 15.04 on my new Intel NUC   However the wifi does not work.  It complains (in dmesg) that the iwlwifi module was unable to load the firmware code because iwlwifi-3165-10.ucode could not be found.  I've tried installing newer versions of iwlwifi (from backports), but that seemed very complicated and didn't seem to help.

I decided to upgrade to 17.10 on my Thinkpad.  Now every time I try to shut it down via console or menu) or reboot it, it takes ages.  TTY gives me several errors connected to hung_task_timeout_secs, reaching from kworker, over networkmanager down to wpa_supplicant.  I tried reinstalling with different ISOs (daily-build from 2 days ago, beta2, and the rc one from today) and still get the same error every time.  Any ideas what could cause that issue? Right now I'm running 17.10 on two other, different PCs without any problems whatsoever.  EDIT: deborphan doesn't return any orphaned packages. I think I might have found something though. I decided to completely wipe the disc, including my dualboot windows. Reinstalled, and everything worked fine. Today in university the problem reappeared.  Now the interesting part is: I think it is related to my wifi. At home, during installation and after, I had it plugged in via cable, and had no problems at all. But with only wifi in university it reappeared. So I gave it a try and plugged in the cable again at home, and it works again. Removed cable, restarted, and the problem reappears. Wifi-Card is a Qualcomm Atheros.
