When it doesn't work in Ubuntu are you still receiving an IP address (and default route, DNS, etc) on your network?<br><br>You can test this by right-clicking on the network manager applet in your notification area (top right) and selecting 'Connection Information'. This screen will also show you the driver in use.<br>
<br>If you have values there and they look sensible then there's something else wrong. Maybe the driver has known issues. Have a look on the Ubuntu wiki or search <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org">ubuntuforums.org</a> (or post information here and we'll have a look). Also, more information (the computer you're using mfor example) won't hurt.<br>

Having just got back to the UK I put Ubuntu on my desktop. It is now dual booting with Vista. However I have found that when using Ubuntu sometimes I am connected with the internet and at othertimes there is no connection. This is disappointing (to say the least!). I have an ethernet connection and Vista works perfectly.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions.<br>
<br>
Ps I tried a live version of Mandriva which worked perfectly.<br>
