      Re: wireless router found, but still no connection

      If you can see the router from your system, then one would suspect some issue with configuring your key and/or password. If you want to post the output of
      Code:
      sudo iwconfig
      that will confirm that wireless networking is set up on your system.

      People have trouble with Knetwork-manager, and many prefer wicd for wireless connection management. There are prior threads on how to remove knetwork-manager, if you think that is the problem.

      Also here's community guidance: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

          it looks like your wirless card is being seen anyway....

          so if you click the networkmanager icon in the system tray do you see your network name listed....if yes what happens when you click it. ?

          you didn't say if you use WEP,WPA encryption ....if you DO some people ave trouble with encryption and the stock network manager....most seam to prefer wicd as @dibl has sead.

          also do
          Code:
          ifconfig
          and see if eth1 is UP.

              you can try clicking manage conections and try to set up the acount with WPA/WPA2

              or folow @dibl's advice
