I believe Ubuntu Server edition does not contains any WindowManager
to
configure WiFi. You should edit /etc/network/interfaces file with
your
WiFi
network information something below :
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.1.150
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
wpa-ssid <your_router>
wpa-psk <your_wpa_key>
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 192.168.1.1
your suggested solution isn't working, nor are any of the suggestions
"on"
the internet.
What is not working? Please elaborate.
Details about your WiFi card in your OP would have been helpful (lspci
or lsusb).
If you have not already gone through the following then output from
the following would be helpful.
lsmod
dmesg (only relevant part to WiFi device)
ifconfig -a
iwconfig
Just curios, why WiFi on a server?
the card has been detected (wlan0), and is usable during the
installation process, it's only after the install, i.e. on the
first-boot that the system fails to connect, which i find to be quite
strange.
i am using ubuntu server as the base for my squeak (www.squeak.org)
operating environment project, reason being it's lightness (compared to
ubuntu desktop).
i simply load up the squeak environment as the only application for x by
including only "exec ./squeak" in the .xinitrc file.
btw, the wpa_supplicant method seems to be the right way forward.
am still investigating the best way to make the system present various
wifi access points as choices and then go ahead with the connection
after providing the appropriate details.
thanks,
