Along with the times, then so much the Linux operating system Existing and emerging, some of which is the development of other operating systems. Let's say Ubuntu, Kali Linux, OS Steam is the development of debian, fedora is redhat version in free versions and many more that you can see in full on Wikipedia. However, some people are still too reluctant to install linux, This is because opinions are circulated in the community who think that Linux is hard to use.

Did you know that the user actually Linux is now easier, This is due to a more familiar and palatable for using the GUI. Besides the many forums and good explanatory article about troubleshooting tutorial or on the use of Linux. Including this article, where author tried to describe in general how to tackle one of the problems that sometimes arise. When you have finished installing the base Linux operating system is a network error. Why only a general depiction? Because according to the author, it is more relevant than explained in detail. to tackle the problems that sometimes you will find a variety of different ways.

Do check tool
The first thing you do when you find this problem is to check the router, modem, or ISP.

Check Driver
Checking the tool either modem or router has been running well, but you can not connect to the Internet? If you use Wi-Fi to connect to the internet, a good idea to check your own driver. Whether installed or not? On his development some hardware is not supported directly by the operating system provider. Automatically you have to install proprietary software example broadcom wireless and several others. If you are one of the ubuntu users, to overcome this you can do several options Among others are:



  • Checking the driver through the Jockey-gtk or more familiar called Additional Hardware. Ease of use this application, you do not have too much trouble to detect using the terminal to find a driver you need. In addition, if the problem only on Wi-Fi driver and you connect to the Internet using a cable. The program will perform the download and install the operating system drivers on yours.
  • Checking via the terminal. basic when it will do the installation manually is:
  • You must know the type of operating system you are using as well as the kernel you are currently using. For example, the author checks the operating system and kernel use

  • When you already know the kernel and operating system type, then is to determine the type of computer hardware on the device. You can use the command lspci or lshw, if there was any time you can also use third-party applications. If you use the command lshw, the division will be directly classified. For example, in driver Wi - Fi

    *-network

                              Up here you will know what Kernel, the type of operating system and the type of hardware on your computer device. So you stay looking at the official website or via Google. Let's say here hardware Wi-Fi author uses Broadcom, the kernel developer's website referenced interesting enough.

                              So what if instead of Ubuntu? Of course in basic process will be done the same with the second step, namely knowing your particular device first then dilannjutkan with the installation. Sometimes every linux users will have a different solution in the face of a problem. For example, by using B43, kmod-wl or otherwise.

                              Network settings
                              The tools used and the driver has been good, but still not connected to the internet? Perhaps you can begin to check on the network settings / network.

                              This can sometimes be a very annoying problem, especially for those users based not debian linux with. Sometimes downgrade should be made to find one of the drivers of the computer to match your particular device. new linux kernel is sometimes not in line with the development of hardware drivers in Linux compatibility.
