Oh okay...
Any ideas on how to check where the problem is coming from. I mean Windows has no problem connecting on the same computer so i know it's not a hardware or cable issue. Ubuntu was working fine up until days ago. The only thing that could affect it was that I installed a fresh version of the system recently. However, it worked fine for days since the reinstall.
Thanks,
