No wlan0 interface after uninstall Ubuntu 13.04

I am using Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 0578

Well. I made a very stupid mistake such that many important packages are deleted (Cause cannot connect to network , weather wire or wireless). Therefore , I have no choice but to reinstall with the DVD.

When reinstalling, I pluged the LAN cable and it state it can access to network. However, after reinstall, wire connection is ok but wireless not.

With ifconfig wlan0 up

wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

And iwconfig

eth0      no wireless extensions.

lo        no wireless extensions.

But actually , the chip is exist.

Solution 1:

Basically, this sounds like drivers/modules problems. You can use the following to determine which module is associated to your wireless component :

lspci -vvnn

Load this module :

modprobe [module name]

You can set loaded-on-boot modules in /etc/modules. Add your wireless module to this file, and reboot.

Concerning drivers, have a look here : http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi
