Description:
|
The D-Link DWL-AG650 is a 2.4GHz/5GHz 802.11a/b compliant 32-bit wireless CardBus adapter that provides a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 54Mbps*. The multimode CardBus Adapter seamlessly roams between 802.11a, 802.11g, and 802.11b networks, and users can choose to roam in either 802.11a only or draft compliant 802.11g/b only modes.
The card easily installs into notebook computers via a plug-n-play installation. An integrated site survey tool allows users to easily find wireless networks within range. Using the configuration software tool, users can configure and save multiple network site profiles to gain access at different locations.
* Maximum wireless signal rate based on IEEE Standard 802.11a/g specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors lower actual data throughput rate.

I installed madwifi and ndiswrapper. The card works out pretty great. It can connect to both unencrypted APs and WEP encrypted (although, I am having problems with 128-bit encryption and "Shared Key" mode from the AP-side).
Monitor mode works out fine with weplab and aircrack, but I am having problems with Kismet.

Hardware version B2.
Purchased from ebuyer.co.uk on 14/02/2005.
Installed madwifi drivers from CVS on 28/03/2005 (HAL version 0.9.14.9) with the aid of http://madwifiwiki.thewebhost.de/wiki/Ppc on my Powerbook.
No need to use ndiswrapper (wlan0) if your card is supported by madwifi (ath0).
Drivers loaded and installed correctly.
Card recognizes APs and connects.
Currently having problems connecting with WEP, but I expect this is just an authmode configuration problem.
"iwconfig ath0 key restricted ; iwpriv ath0 authmode 2" might do it, but I haven't tried that yet.
Monitor mode works well with Kismet.
