    What is the brand and model of your router?

    What is the model of your Medion?

    Which version of Ubuntu are you using?

      I couldn't find any info on either one of those. I found the Belkin N150 Basic router. Is that the one you have?

      Open terminal and do
      Code: [Select]
      lspci | grep Wireless Post the output here.
