Please first connect your network card to the wireless router using an ethernet cable (also known as a LAN cable) and apply all updates.
In order to gather essential troubleshooting information about your wireless card, please follow this procedure:
Step 1
In the Ubuntu Terminal console , make sure that unlimited scrolling is enabled:
click on Edit > Profiles > "Default" profile > Scrolling. Choose "Unlimited" as scrolling option. Click Close and Close again.
Before Ubuntu 11.04 the default 'Desktop Environment' was Gnome. In 11.04 the Gnome interface (DE) is called 'Classic'. If you are using the Gnome interface, open the Terminal console via "Applications-
If you are using Ubuntu 11.04 and haven't changed back to "Classic" session then you are using the Unity interface. The easiest way to open the Terminal in UNity is to use the 'search' function on the dash. Or you can click on the 'More Apps' button, click on the 'See more results' by the installed section, and find it in that list of applications. A third way, available after you click on the 'More Apps' button, is to go to the search bar, and see that the far right end of it says 'All Applications'. You then click on that, and you'll see the full list. Then you can go to Accessories > Terminal after that.
So the methods in Unity are:
Press CTRL-ALT-T key combination.
Dash > Search for Terminal
Dash > More Apps > 'See More Results' > Terminal
Dash > More Apps > Accessories > Terminal
Step 2
Please copy-paste the following diagnostic command from the
https:/
website using a web browser (like Google Chromium or Mozilla Firefox) into the Linux Terminal. The command STARTS with the word sudo and ENDS with the word lsmod. So please copy-paste the ENTIRE diagnostic command below from the web browser into a Terminal, press <enter>, then enter password when sudo asks for password, then press enter again.
Tip: If you have a wheel mouse or 3 button mouse you do not need to type commands into the Terminal. Highlight the diagnostic command written on the page. Move your cursor anywhere in the Terminal and press the wheel or middle button. Automatic Copy and paste! No spelling mistakes! No Typos! No other errors!
sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install hwinfo grep rfkill; sudo lshw -C network; rfkill list; sudo iwlist scan | egrep -i 'chan|ssid'; cat /etc/network/
Step 3
Please do NOT attempt to send any attachment(s). Please copy/paste the full terminal output at this location:
https:/
The troubleshooters at Launchpad need to see the full Terminal output from running the above diagnostic command.

Your Terminal output shows us the following issue:
acer_wmi 32522 0
asus_nb_wmi 16990 0
asus_wmi 24191 1 asus_nb_wmi
So both acer_wmi and asus_wmi are active on your PC.
However, you are using an ASUS computer, not an Acer computer.
So the acer_wmi module needs to be blacklisted (= prevent it from starting during boot).
Please copy-paste the following command into the Terminal and then press
<ENTER>:
gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.
Using the gedit editor, please ADD the following configuration line into
the file /etc/modprobe.
blacklist acer_wmi
Using the gedit editor, SAVE the change to the
/etc/modprobe.
Then REBOOT and retest wireless. This blacklist operation should make
the change permanent, even after rebooting.
This should force the Linux kernel to stop loading the acer_wmi module,
which is probably causing the kernel to soft block your wireless adapter.
The acer-wireless interface is an invalid wireless interface on your
computer, because you are using an ASUS K450J-quadcore i7 , not an
ACER computer.

you lead a blind through the dschungel! thanks a lot!
when you searched my terminal copy, did you also see any incorrect with my graphics and bluetooth? - system testing gave a "failed" out.

Please create separate questions for the graphics and bluetooth issues.
