Hi,
I've got a really strange problem with my Ath AR9285. I'm really new to linux and Ubuntu (using a VMware) so you may have to give me a few prompts
Current its showing that i have a wired connection via ubuntu but i've only got my computer setup wirelessly.
the internet works within ubuntu but it currently won't find anything to do with wireless.
my lspci output doesn't even show the wireless card within it.
I've been searching for two days to get this working and have tried a few different things, someone said about updating the drivers. i thought i had but if someone can give me the path to the apt as all the others i tried couldn't be found (lots of old posts)
if anyone can help me as im about to pull my hair out!
Thanks
ms
