router problem...

Hello all,

I have 2 pcs ( one desktop running vista and an aspire one a150)
Both are connected to a smc barricade.
Both couldn't connect to the internet if they were plugged into the router.
In Vista, after toying with some networksettings, I could connect.
On the a150 I first had Linpus, and after alot of trying I could connect to the internet too.
The changes to some scripts that I made worked.
However now I changed to Ubuntu 9.04, the connection doesn't work again...
Connecting to the modem works right away, so it is not a internet connection issue.
The problem is ( permently) setting the right values for the networkcard.

On linpus I used : speed 10 Mb/s duplex: Half autoneg : on

So far i had no luck to get Ubuntu to use these setting to get onto internet....
Can anyone help me to get the right settings on the right place?

Thanks in advance

 

would recommend the mad-wifi driver for ubuntu as described here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne

Now we need to disable the hardware drivers that Ubuntu tries to use before the ones we make will function. So go to System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and uncheck everything. It should prompt us to reboot, so lets do it now.

Code:

mkdir source
cd source
wget [url]http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-current.tar.gz[/url]
tar -xzvf madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-current.tar.gz
cd madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3879-20081204
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)

make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe ath_pci 

In order to have the wireless work after reboot, add the following line to /etc/modules ("gksudo gedit /etc/modules") to automatically load the module when booting:

Code:

ath_pci
