how do i connect my linksys model WUSB54G version 4 wireless to my ubuntu linux?

Asked by the uss

i have recently switched from using windows to linux. When i try to connect my wireless network to the computer, it doesnt seem to work. the strange thing is that it has a signal already picked up, however it will not connect to the internet, i was wondering if anyone could help me with my problem?

That's great that your laptop wireless card picks up the network, now go into your wireless properties and select Roaming to connect. It might be good to start without encryption or password protection; just an open wireless network and then slowly add your changes protection etc. after your initial connection and testing. Hope this helps.

I also have the same problem, i am also using the same wireless model WUSB54G, I have tried what you have suggested to "the uss", but even though i disconnected the password from the router, i still couldn't get a connection, is there any other way to solve this problem?

Can you help with this problem?
