UPDATE: Turns out I can actually connect to wifi networks on ubuntu. Not sure why or if it's gonna stay this way. The output of lspci -knn | grep Net -A2 is: 04:00.0 Network Controller : Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)ĮDIT: I could actually connect to wi-fi on ubuntu today. I can see all the WiFi networks listed, and when I try to connect, it just keeps trying for a while and then fails. I even booted up using a Linux live disc and I faced the same problem. I re-installed Ubuntu but nothing changed. Please also check the device status under Device ManagerNetwork Adapter, to launch Device Manager, you can type 'device manager' in the right search charm bar. I can still connect to WiFi networks using Windows 8.1, but the situation hasn't changed in Ubuntu. If the connetion is fine, then we can focuse on Windows 8.1, run the troubleshooter and see if it can detect something, Action CenterTroubleshootingNetwork and Internet. With a couple tweaks we can bring the functionality back. It does not however provide any GUI to remove the stored network profiles.

Use the following procedures to connect to your server in your local network and install the server certificate on your Windows Phone or a computer that is running Windows 8 or Windows 8.1. The Windows 7 interface was removed and now Windows 8 provides you a touch friendly network pane to connect to a wireless network. This connects the device to your server running Windows Server Essentials in your local network. I looked on the internet for a solution and after a while I decided to go back to Windows 8.1 hoping it would solve the problem. Windows 8.1 has extreme UI changes for management of wireless networks. I recently upgraded my Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 and when I booted into Ubuntu afterwards I wasn't able to connect to WiFi on Ubuntu any more but I can still connect on Windows 10.
