Have you restarted the router and checked the router settings?
Otherwise, can you post the output of
lshw -c network
Here?
Hi Aravisian,
Hope you can view the attached file. I have restarted the router and the Zorin Laptop is not barred on the router. Many thanks for your help. Tim
Interesting, your driver should be included in the kernel. Maybe it needs to be flipped on. Can you try:
sudo modprobe iwl3945
Will do. Sorry -was away for a couple of weeks.
Hi Aracisian. Typed in as described but nothing happened??? Please see below.
Can you give me the output of
lspci?
I found this.
It is also recommended to check and see if the physical switch for WiFi is not set to OFF position.
Wifi is definitely set to on and the pc is registering on the router so a wireless connection seems to be achieved but it isn't getting onto the internet. I have a virgin cable router and there are no restrictions on the connection....?
Do you have iwlwifi?
Let's find out... if this does not work, we will need to install it...
echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
sudo modprobe -rfv iwlwifi
sudo modprobe -v iwlwifi

Hi FrenchPress
Tried the fix's suggested in your link. No further on, I'm afraid. Here are the screenshots from them. I think I have included them all. Many thanks.

Yes, the module was present in the kernel and it is using the iwlwifi module now. You may try a restart and then testing your wifi and hope it works...
This might help?

I saw @Aravisian gave you an advice already.
You'd better follow his advise since he is way more experienced than myself.
This is debatable.

Sorry Aravisian but no progress...
Can you try frenchpress's link above? You may prefer to replace vi with nano.
Not sure how I edit this file. Can you give me some more direction. No rush... time for bed for me! Thanks for your help guys.
