Hey guys,

This is my first time using linux and my wireless card isn't being detected. I have an ASUS UX30 with the Azureware NE768 wireless LAN card. I downloaded the NE768 windows driver (No Linux driver) from ASUS's website and it extracted into a driver for the Ralink RT2860 so Im guessing its the RT2860 chipset or something.

I downloaded the RT2860 linux driver and firmware from here:
http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Hom...ort/Linux.html,
Then put the firmware in /lib/firmware/

#tar -xzf 2009_0521_RT2860_Linux_STA_V2.1.2.0.tgz

edited /os/linux/config.mk so it reads:
HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y
HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y

then
$sudo make
$sudo make install
$sudo insmod /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2860sta.ko
$sudo modprobe rt2860sta

I got no output after insmod and no output after modprobe so I assume it worked (whatever insmod and modprobe does) but the network connections still doesn't say I have a wireless card.

Does anyone have any ideas ?

Thanks,
d

Hello and wellcome to LQ,

how do you know that your wireless-card was not detected? Please post the output of Markus

Hey, thanks for the response. I don't have lspci in /sbin

EDIT: ok I tried something else:

Does this tell me that I actually have the RaLink 3091 ? That means I've been using the wrong driver. Let me see if i can find the 3091 driver.

tenoki@Betsy:~$ lspci | egrep -i "eth"
00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 90)

ok so i tried installing the RT3090 driver from the website:
http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Hom...ort/Linux.html

but I get this when i try to do insmod and modprobe (after doing make and make install):

Hi again,

I'm not sure if this devic actually is a Wlan-card. Google told me that your Asus is very new. So I'd recommend to post this issue in the hardware-forum of LQ.

Markus

ok thanks markush
