"Wireless authentication required" on a Samsung N150

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 3749 / 3 Years ago, thu, august 12, 2021, 6:46:43

I have a Samsung N150 plus netbook with a Broadcom BCM4313 wireless adapter. Today I installed Ubuntu 11.10 desktop 32 bit.
When I try to connect to the wireless internet router I repeatedly receive this message "Authentication required by wireless network."

I had this same problem with Ubuntu 10.04.

Are there any suggestions?

Thanks in advance..

Thanks for everyone who tried to help..

how it's been solved :

installed Wicd (using wired connection )

removed network manager :

sudo apt-get remove network-manager

then :

sudo apt-get purge network-manager network-manager-gnome

changed the security type of the internet modem from WPA/WPA2 to WEP-hex (coz the wireless lan never connected to the modem with WPA/WPA2 )..
now every thing working fine with the wireless lan..
