I have installed ubuntu 12.10 on a new Zoostorm Laptop, Intel Pentium DC B980 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD, 15.6\" HD LED. Ubuntu works a treat but the wifi will not work. Has anyone had a similar problem and knows how to fix it? thanks

  • We need some more details, like what kind of card, but generally the problem is that there is no driver installed. – kyle_hamblett Dec 31 '12 at 17:56

I have exactly the same laptop and the answer by izx from this thread did the job for me on Lubuntu 12.10:

Wireless card Realtek RTL8723AE-BT is not recognized

I also fallowed user239558 suggestions and downloaded newest driver from here: www.liteon.com/UserFiles/driver/Module/Network/WLAN/RTL/rtl_92ce_92se_92de_8723ae_linux_mac80211_0007.0809.2012.tar.gz
