I have a ubuntu 16.04, windows 10 asus dual boot.
I saw a similar (but not the same) question posted to this one at this link: Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230 won't connect, keeps asking for password.
My wireless connects but no data is transferred, I can't load google, etc. I typed in:
lspci -knn | grep Net -A3
And received:
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 / AR9565 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:0036] rev(01)
Subsystem: Lite-On Communications Inc QCA9565 / AR9565 Wireless Network Adapter [11ad:0662]
Kernel driver in use: ath9k
Kernel modules : ath9k
I tried the fixes suggested, but I do not have the /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi-opt.conf
file, only a /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
file. I tried to adapt for atheros vs. intel, but I lack the proper know how.
What should my next steps be?
Thanks.
EDIT 1: I entered the following command as suggested by user nadav mavor:
sudo ifconfig -a ping 8.8.8.8
I received:
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
ping: Error while getting interface flags: No such device
Edit 2: Corrected the command inputs. I entered:
sudo ifconfig
