Making an Intel 3945 Wireless card work in Ubuntu 8.04
By cbarrett | July 4, 2008
I found this on the Dell linux wiki and it did the charm. These are the steps I took, your results may be different.
- First, I disabled the wireless via the switch on the side before loading Ubuntu.
- Next, I did the follow step:
Create a file called /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ipw3945 and add:
blacklist ipw3945
Add to /etc/modules:
iwl3945
- Then, I enabled the wireless card and enabled the restricted driver.
After that, I was finally able to connect to my wireless router.
