Obviously a step by step guide would be very helpful please as I'm new to this inputting code lark.



I had a wireless connection when I installed ubuntu 12.10 from the cd once it installed it suggested there was 126 updates so I installed those and my wireless connection has stopped.



I've tried looking at other posts but find that I end going round in circles, what I'm after is the answer in a step be step format without having go around the houses looking at a thousand other posts with similar problems.



Below is what popped up in the terminal hopefully theres some kind person out there that understands what the problem is....

You could try to disable driver for your wireless card in Settings -> Source Software -> additional drivers (sorry if the path is not correct, i have Ubuntu in italian) and then restart. For me it worked.
