You will need to get an ethernet connection and get some files from the internet: Code: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential Then go here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...55&postcount=5 You can follow each step carefully and even copy and paste his commands into a terminal. There is one correction, however, his two commands that start with 'sed' should be run as sudo; that is, sudo sed ...etc. You should then disconnect the wire and click the Network Manager icon and connect wirelessly.               rtl8192se - Wireless Problems on 1201N I found a solution to get wireless networking to work without NDISWrapper! I went to the following link to figure it out: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...6?comments=all I used the rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0010.1211.2009.tar.gz file which was referenced in post #134 and is available here: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/366886...11.2009.tar.gz I did the following to get it to work after downloading the file: Code: tar xzf rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0010.1211.2009.tar.gz cd rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0010.1211.2009 sudo make Then you need to edit two files to work with Ubuntu using the following commands (This works on Ubuntu 9.10): Code: sed -i 's/install: modules/install:/g' ./ieee80211/Makefile sed -i 's/install: modules/install:/g' ./HAL/rtl8192/Makefile Then you install with the following command: Code: sudo make install sudo echo "r8192se_pci" > /etc/modules sudo modprobe r8192se_pci
