11.10 - Wireless doesn't work on an HP Pavillion DV6000 with an Intel 3945abg

So I just installed Ubuntu 11.10 on my HP Pavillion DV6000 and my wireless will not connect. I been searching all over the Internet for answers so this is my last resort. Nobody can quite figure it out I've heard to get online and do updates cause i dont have a wired connection.




It reads my wireless and ask for passphase and then just cant connect. It keeps popping up every minute or so asking for the password. I have a Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945abg [golan] network controller.



Im new to ubuntu im using a mobile hotspot for my wireless i then went to edit connections found my hotspot then went to the wireless security it is WPA & WPA2 Personal i made sure the passphase is right. The wierd thing is i upgraded from ubuntu 10.10 and the wireless worked fine on this computer. here is my information.
