Hi, thanks for the reply. I have a new problem now. Previously I had a
wireless driver compatibility problem in my Dell 1525 and i downloaded
suitable driver using a wired connection, which worked. Now after several
days of windows using, I booted ubuntu and again I am disconnected from the
internet. Can you help me figure out what happened and how can i solve
this.
