Wireless

29.

In some cases, the wireless network device may need a restricted driver in order to operate. The best way to check this is to open the application named <application>Jockey</application>. To open <application>Jockey</application>, go to <menuchoice><guimenu>Kickoff Application Launcher</guimenu><guisubmenu>Applications</guisubmenu><guisubmenu>System</guisubmenu><guimenuitem>Hardware Deivers</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. If the wireless network device requires a restricted driver, <application>Jockey</application> will provide that information and assist with selecting, installing and activating the proper driver. When this step is completed, wireless connections can be configured. The machine must be rebooted before the newly installed, restricted driver will make the wireless device work.

Ensure that the wireless device is turned on. Most modern laptop computers have a physical switch for wireless.

If a connection has been made previously to the selected network, connect to that network by clicking on it in the <guilabel>Wireless</guilabel> tab. If no connection has been made to the desired network previously, continue with the following procedure:

33.

Click the <guibutton>Add...</guibutton> button.

34.

Enter the <acronym>SSID</acronym> of the new network. It can be entered manually if known. If not, press the <guibutton>Scan</guibutton> button to search for the network.

35.

Enter any other information required for the connection, especially if the owner has established wireless security for the network.

If the machine has been connected to a wireless network previously, <phrase>Kubuntu</phrase> can automatically connect to the network where it is available. This selection option should be chosen when the initial connection to the network is being configured.

When both wired and wireless network connections are available, the wired connection will be used by default.
