Thread: Wireless connects, but doesn work (?),

hello.

use 12.04 beta on x220 thinkpad. if should post in ubuntu+1 forum, please tell me so. think network/wireless forum place start.

when try connect encrypted wireless network, seems work. can connect, ip-address , correct dns route , subnet mask, etc.

when open web browser, can't access site, not router. not dns-problem (i suppose) makes no difference whether enter url or ip-address.

tried nm-tool , got following output

code:

- device: wlan0  [mynetwork] ----------------------------------------------   type:              802.11 wifi   driver:            iwlwifi   state:             connected   default:           no   hw address:        08:11:96:51:ea:58    capabilities:     speed:           1 mb/s    wireless properties     wep encryption:  yes     wpa encryption:  yes     wpa2 encryption: yes

sudo iwconfig results in:

code:

and cat/proc/net/wireless results in:

code:

sudo lshw -c network gives:

code:

  *-network        description: wireless interface        product: centrino advanced-n 6205        vendor: intel corporation        physical id: 0        bus info: pci@0000:03:00.0        logical name: wlan0        version: 34        serial: 08:11:96:51:ea:58        width: 64 bits        clock: 33mhz        capabilities: pm msi pciexpress bus_master cap_list ethernet physical wireless        configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwlwifi driverversion=3.2.0-20-generic firmware=17.168.5.3 build 42301 ip=192.168.2.102 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=ieee 802.11abgn        resources: irq:49 memory:f2500000-f2501fff

i think packages somehow discarded, maybe encryption not work. have idea do?

thanks.
