Thread: Connected to wireless router but Internet not working


hi,

complete newbie ubuntu , have installed 11.04 on samsung netbook n145 plus usb , dual boot windows 7. installed fine , looked unable browse internet. windows 7 connects , browses fine.
i've done of own research , can see wlan0 card in ifconfig , can see have ip assigned router. have tried ping google name , ip without success. tried adding nameservers resolv.conf didn't expect work pinging ips fails also.
tried disabling ipv6 in /etc/sysctl.conf following code no avail suggested on forum.

#disable ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1


suggestions made have been use different network driver , have looked @ 'additional drivers' nothing comes up.
looks common issue still haven't found definitive solution newbie instructions on how fix.
complete linux novice, trying learn @ moment windows consultant quite happy try long step step instructions.
further info, had same issue jolicloud.

further test installed jolicloud , ubuntu onto wife's msi netbook , worked first time suspect wireless card driver.

appreciated want use ubuntu, thanks.
