No network at all, wired or wireless

[Andy_R]

Well, first off I downloaded the bt3final_usb and burnt it to DVD.

Booted up fine, even compiz works, but no network at all.

I am familiar with ubuntu, I actually have a dual boot setup on my machine.
In ubuntu I had to use ndiswrapper to get my wireless to work, but the wired worked without any issue. My computer is a HP m7463w with all the original hardware. Which doesn't make sense why BT3 doesn't work.


Anyway,
I ran lspci and it shows my adapters. I tried to save the output to hdd and a flash but it wouldn't do either. So I took a picture of my monitor and I can't make out the intel number.

Ethernet Controller Intel Corporation 82816??? (ICH7 Family) LAN Controller (rev 01)

Ethernet Controller Atheros Communications, Inc, AR5413 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)


When I run iwconfig it says no wireless interfaces detected.

When I run ifconfig it only shows lo


Any suggestions? Thanks

Ok, I got the wired ethernet working by using:

modprobe e100

Now I have internet, still no wireless, here is the output when I run lspci:
