Thanks for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Can you try this with a 10.04 live CD and see if it finds your wifi?
Also, I am going to move it to the linux project until we know more about the issue. gnome-nettool is for running tools like ping, whois, traceroute, etc., it doesn't do any setup or discovery of network connections or hardware. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-nettool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897282 Title: Wubi installed Ubuntu 10.04 can't use wireless network Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 10.04.03 LTS was installed recently using Wubi in WinXP home edition. I used a full partition (26GB) for Ubuntu. Wireless works well in WinXP on same laptop. So hardware has no problem. But no wireless network can be found in Ubuntu by network-manager or Wicd. Manually inputing wireless ESSID and password in network-manager didn't help. I have tried all commands related to wireless network I can find. The output are as below. It seems wireless card was disabled. But I couldn't find way to enable it. I may have disabled (reenabled later) wireless card in WinXP when installing Ubuntu. So I reinstalled Ubuntu using Wubi to check if it's the problem. But this time I kept wireless enable. The problem is still same in new Ubuntu. So disabling and reenabling in WinXP was not the problem. It becomes more like a bug. I have not find hardware switch on laptop and never use it. It should not be problem since WinXP works well.
