I installed UBUNTU 13.04 dual boot with Windows 8. all working perfectly well except my wireless. the wireless does not turn on or off. neither it detects any wireless system. Fn+F2 does not turn on or off the wireless network. the light indication of Wi-Fi also doesnt turn on. it is off constantly. i think it contains: Dell Wireless 1390 or 1395 WLAN MiniCard. plx help asap! waiting.

  • Have you already connected to a hard line (ethernet cable) so Linux can auto update the WiFi drivers? – Alex K Jul 03 '13 at 19:21

1st you have to see if it's used by the system
go to settings >> software & updates >> additional driver
and check to use the wireless adapter by system if it's not used
if it's not working reply me i'll help

go to Software Sources in System settings (think its called software and updates now) the last tab is addition drivers , select that and active the Broadcom driver
