Do you know where to look? The network manager icon should be toward the right side of the top menu. It looks like a T.

If it shows no networks and you know that some exist in your neighborhood, open a terminal window. Run the command "lspci," copy the results, and paste it here.

It's possible, however unlikely, that your wi-fi chipset isn't supported by the standard setup.

You also could try connecting directly to your router with an ethernet cable, then running system -> administration -> update manager to make sure you have the latest versions of all the software.

WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW ??? THNX AGAIN FOR ANSWERING ME

 

in the terminal also type "iwconfig", if you get information about a certain "eth1" or "wlan0" or "wifi0" most likely you are in a good place*, because these are the normal ways of labelling your wireless interface. If not, there is no active module for your wireless, in which case, you have extra work to do.

 

thanks for answering...but here what i got :

lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

hso0 no wireless extensions.

eth2 IEEE 802.11 Nickname:""
Access Point: Not-Associated

( by the way i ve entered the application named "hard ware drivers" and i found the driver as a proprietary driver " and i activate it...after that the netbook responds to me when i click the wireless network button on the interface of the machine...so i guess the driver is installed and the machine is also working " ans i hope "..BUT STILL NO WIRELESS NETWORK ....ALTHOUGH IAM BROWSING INTERNET USING THE EHTERNET CABLE OF THE ROUTER ????????????
................ so...do you think iam in poor position ???

 

YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....IAM NOW CONNECTED TO MY WIRL]ELES LAN...
THANKS GOD.....THANKS EVERY BODY.....LETS GET STARTED TO LINUX....AND LEAVE WINDOWS( I HOPE FOREVER )
THNX..!!!!!!

 

Welcome to linux.

PS: as many of us, I'm another ex-Windows user. I abandoned it 2 years ago and I can't even imagine me working with it again.
