Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g,, wont work on linux
hello, i have been trying to work this out for about 2 weeks now,, i have read nearly every post. I have tryed downloading all these new things to try make it work. alot ofpost were telling me to get madwifi but that doesnt work with Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g. So if some-one would liek to help me, that would be nice!!
thanks :) |
I have the same exact card :)
We will need to know the problem first, before we can start fixing it :) What Linux distribution are you using? What is wrong with it? Elaborate on this as much as possible. That will give us a good start. |
i am using backtrack 4, i can use the internet, the only thing that i wont that isnt working is when i type airmon-ng under interface, chipset and driver there isnt anthing!
|
Don't use airmon-ng. that never works for me.
Instead, do it "The Linux Way"
You are now in monitor mode. happy hacking! |
i hav tryed that,, but everytime i write these line it comes up with
root@bt:~# ifconfig wlan0 down wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device root@bt:~# iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device wlan0 ; No such device. root@bt:~# ifconfig wlan0 up wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device root@bt:~# |
Hmmm....
Type in "lspci" and post the output here. Type in "ifconfig -a" and post the output here. (Block out your IP address) |

Funny question. But when you posted that, were you using your Ethernet or Wireless?
|
i am using wireless, i use a laptop
|
Quote:
If that is your Ethernet, try eth1. |
i have tryed but i dont think i am putting in the right commands, can u please tell me wat to put in?

VMware + BT4 does not support Atheros cards.
http://forums.remote-exploit.org/new...g-problem.html Try BT4 as a Linux Live DVD/USB or install it to your hard drive. It should work. If it doesn't, BT4 has a how-to to get it working: http://forums.remote-exploit.org/bac...-work-bt4.html You can also try VirtualBox, which is much better than VMware, although the Live CD DVD/USB or install to HDD is recommended first. |
ok i am using viraulbox with BT4, can u tell me how to get my driver working thanks :)
thanks |
That's IF it will work....
Post the output of "lspci" again. |
