I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 as a virtual machine on my Mac. Since I am unable to get the virtual machine to have full access to my WiFi card, I bought another USB WiFi card to use.
If you are unfamiliar with Virtual machine, as far as I know, since the Ubuntu has its own card now, it shouldn't matter.
I have followed these guides with no luck:
- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessAccessPoint
- http://www.danbishop.org/2011/12/11/using-hostapd-to-add-wireless-access-point-capabilities-to-an-ubuntu-server/
The problem is that the WiFi connection appears on all of the machines that I have in my house: 2 iPhones, Dell machine running Ubuntu and two Macbooks. However the connection times out on all of these machines.
Questions:
- Could this be a driver issue if that same WiFi card can connect to other WiFi points and use its internet
- Could this be DHCP related? I would think not. It should at least get a 169.X.X.X address? No?
- Any solutions for me?
