I bought a new Hp pavilion 15 ab-029TX. I installed ubuntu 14.04 alongside windows8. There is a problem with accessing wireless in ubuntu. It shows either out of range or doesn't connect to the internet. I'm new to linux. Any help will be much appreciated.

You can install this driver offline.
Download these files and copy them to your Home folder in Ubuntu:
Then run in terminal:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Even after restarting the problem exists. Still showing the network out of range. Installation was fine without errors. – Vamshi Kumar Kurva Oct 03 '15 at 08:37
