upgrade stopped wireless card working - HELP!

[mythen]

I have a BelkinHigh-Speed Mode Wireless G USB Network Adaptor which was working fine using ndiswrapper in Kubuntu 7.04. Then I upgraded to 7.10 - the Network Adaptor does not seem to be detected. Is there some way that this could have been disabled, and hence could be enabled? Any help would be greatly appreciated here.

Try this: run the command

kdesudo kate /etc/network/interfaces

Replace the entire content of the file with the following:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1
netmask 255.0.0.0

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

auto eth2
iface eth2 inet dhcp

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp

auto ath0
#iface ath0 inet dhcp

Be sure to leave a blank line at the end of the config; then, log out, restart X.org with Alt+E, log back in, and your connection should be detected. Let me know how it goes

If you're on a laptop, and have the option to toggle the wireless connection, be sure it's on. I just upgraded to a wireless router for my laptop, and had an issue with Gutsy detecting my wireless card until I did the above
