    Could you offer more details like the output of sudo lspci -nnk | grep -A5 Network and iwconfig? Edit your question and add the information asked. – Braiam Oct 10 '13 at 19:06

You can try these commands:

wget https://raw.github.com/gkaindl/beaglebone-ubuntu-scripts/master/bb-get-rcn-kernel-source.sh
chmod +x ./bb-get-rcn-kernel-source.sh
./bb-get-rcn-kernel-source.sh

OR

go to additional drivers. It will search for additional drivers needed. If it shows any activated wifi driver, then try removing it and installing it again.
Note: If you remove wifi driver, u need working lan connection to install the wifi driver.

OR Check this page: http://www.janoweb.net/tutorials/install-drivers-rtl8187-r8187-rt2800usb-on-ubuntu-lucid-maverick.html#axzz2hOO46W57

OR

May be the distance between the router and your PC is more. If possible, then kindly reduce the distance little bit by moving the router.
Lastly, kindly avoid putting router inside any closed space. Keep it in open space.

Hope this helps.
