D-Link DWL-G510 Rev B Install Problems


I installed the madwifi drivers on my system and added this line to my modprobe file
alias ath0 ath_pci

However my card is not even detected on start up or listed under Administration/Network/Devices tab.

I would like to know how to finish the installation. I installed it before and got the card to work, but I cannot get it to work again.

Here are my system specs:
/sbin/lspci

May I suggest you go here --> http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Fir...eMadWifiModule

This first time how to document is step by step with lots of examples. I used to to get my DWL-G630 Antheros card to run.

Hope this helps.
