Okay I accustomed to have glass windows xp but i completly screwed it up and now i have ubuntu. So when i did have xp it arrived using the computer and i really do hold the disk however the perfect solution is key wont perform and i have gone so far as i can using the revenue i should correct it. But it just wont work. So now all i’d like is to have ubuntu to recognize the things i should download to connect to netgear.
Does the things which i download to connect to netgear recognize the software i should install? can i translate the software to ubuntu?
This one i definitely might probably need help on i might probably need make use of ubuntu to connect at the world wide web wirelessly at the router downstairs using the ubuntu os to recognize the software i should install.

Ubuntu doesn’t automatically recognize and configure new hardware like Windows does. This is especially true of wireless adapters.
The following process is similar to what I did when I configured my wireless adapter in Ubuntu:
——-
The network configuration tool can be accessed via that System menu (System -> Administration -> Network).
Under the “Connections” tab, you should see a “Wireless connection” line (if you don’t, then your wireless card probably wasn’t recognizied).
Click the “Unlock” button (lower right hand corner) to enable updates to the configuration.
The “Wireless connection” line should now be enabled. Select that line, then click the “Properties” button (on the right). Enter all the appropriate values for your wireless setup. I’d be more specific, but I don’t know anything about how the wireless network to which you wish to connect, is configured.
An alternative to using the Network GUI tool is to update the /etc/network/interfaces system file. An example of this file is:
#——-
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# This is a list of hotpluggable network interfaces.
# They will be activated automatically by the hotplug subsystem.
mapping hotplug
script grep
map eth0
# The primary network interface
iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth1 inet dhcp
