I have an ASUS ROG G750JS machine, in which I installed Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS. I had two problems with the installation:
- The system froze when I asked it to reboot or shutdown. I solved it by adding the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"
to the/etc/default/grub
file. - It didn't detect wifi networks. I managed to make it detect my home's network by following the most upvoted answer in this question: Installing Broadcom Wireless Drivers
However, the connection is very, very slow. Not knowing how to solve this problem, I decided to try to untoggle the wifi with modprobe -r wl
and toggle it again with modprobe wl
. But when I do it, it never connects again, and keeps asking for the network's password until it times out.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
