Qiana does not find some network

[Torslund]

I have a clean install Qiana that connects to my wifi router with no problem. But it can find any network i our village, it is a fiber network with Zyxel routers. Mintwifi and other does not show any network. But if I come home it connects to my own network, Dovado 4G.
I did install Qiana to a friend who use ZTE MF910 and it did connect instantly.
My Asus net-book with Mint kde 14 find the network in the village.
So if it does not find any network I can't manually make a connection from shell either.
What should i do?

In terminal

Code: Select all

iw reg get

and post the result and what country you are in

[Torslund]

It says,

(2457 - 2482 @ 40), (3, 20), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
(2474 - 2494 @ 20), (3, 20), NO-OFDM, PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS

Try

Code: Select all

sudo iw reg set SE

and reboot

[Torslund]

Ok, but got more problems network-manager stop showing connections. I can connect to my network but can't see that.
So I did remove network-manager, after reinstall it can't be find.
It must be something wrong with network-manager also, connections should not just disappear but still be there working ok.
The problem with no wifi found is on both computers I have Qiana installed on.

Do your networks show with

Code: Select all

iwlist scan

[Torslund]

Did try it but no network

[JeremyB]

Run this script in terminal on both computers

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install pastebinit

Code: Select all

 wget -N -t 5 -T 10 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57264241/wireless_script && chmod +x wireless_script && ./wireless_script[code]
When it asks about using pastebin to upload press y and then enter.  Then copy and paste the URL from terminal in seperate posts for each computer and say if it is from computer that works or don't work

[Torslund]

No pastebinit available for mint 11. the working computer
but the not working say,
http://pastebinit.com/kTYqbXpg

For the other compter, paste the contents of the wireless-info.txt file at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com - then post that link here.

From the not working one do

Code: Select all

cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa-roam.conf

Read it before posting it checking for your username or password as I don't have this file on any computer.

Do you still have install media(DVD or USB) to see if you can connect or even find these other wifi's

[Torslund]

network=(key_mgmt=none)
Yes, I was thinking about try with the usb stick tomorrow, time for bed, 01.00 a clock here now.

I know the card in the non-working computer is an old one, is there a chance some of these networks you can't find are Wireless-N only as the 3945 doesn't have that capability?

[Torslund]

I did drive around and could find network with usb stick.
Back to basics, try with iwlist scan and find network.
Networkmanager does not show the connection in widget. I can remove it and create a new one. But it does not show up. It starts only after reboot but does not show up.
I have use Ceni in other dists, but it does not work in Mint.
I guess I have to make a new install with the computer connected to the missing router, eth or wlan. And never move it from that connection
