If your wireless card does not work with Xubuntu, you may have to do some research in order to activate it. A relatively reliable way of getting a wireless card to work is to use the <application>ndiswrapper</application> tool which allows Xubuntu to use the Microsoft Windows driver for the wireless card. To do this, follow the instructions below in <xref linkend="wireless-ndiswrapper"/>.

Often parts of ADSL USB modem drivers are proprietary, closed source software, with a restrictive licence, and so the whole driver cannot be supplied with Xubuntu. To get a modem to work with these drivers, you will need to download files from Internet with a computer having a working connection, then transfer the downloaded files to you Xubuntu installation.
