I just bought an HP Pavilion g6 laptop and I installed Natty Narwhal alongside Windows 7. In Windows 7, my WiFi works perfect but in Ubuntu it absolutely (no matter what I do) won't detect my home WiFi network.
This page contains the list of device drivers for HP Pavilion g6. To download the proper driver, first choose your operating system, then find your device name and click the download button. Download and Update HP Pavilion Series Drivers for your Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and Windows 10. HP Pavilion Series Network Drivers Download. Driver Doctor is.
Here is the output of 'lspci':
The RT5390PCIe is not directly supported by the current Natty kernel.
You will need to download some driver source code and patch the Natty kernel.
Unfortunately you need to be aware, everytime the Natty kernel is updated, you will need to repeat the following instructions:
Extract it. The files will be extracted to 2010_1216_RT5390_LinuxSTA_V2.4.0.4_WiFiBTCombo_DPO folder.
Download all the patches except the x64_86 patch, assuming you have a 32-bit system, from opensuse website.
Copy the patches to the folder – 2010_1216_RT5390_LinuxSTA_V2.4.0.4_WiFiBTCombo_DPO
Goto the folder.
Make the following change in /os/linux/config.mk file – HAS_ANTENNA_DIVERSITY_SUPPORT=y (originally was n)
Now run the following commands in terminal:
Need to have connected to the Internet for this. Have you already gone into System->Adminstration->Hardware Drivers and Seen if any WiFi was listed if nothing was listed . i tracked down the manufacturers website and driver for you. http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support/support.php?sn=501 Your WiFi Card is RT5390PCIe aka Ralink corp. Device 5390
Hope this helps!
