HI. I have a D-Link DWL-G120. I have followed nearly all the instructions on all the sites, forums, posts that have something on DWl-G120 to install on Ubuntu.I used Ndiswrapper. But there seems to be some error as all the forums says it should be detected a wlan0 but it doesn't appear. Please help!!!

Welcome to LQ.

You might read this: http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/sh...t/2117/cat/133

First step is probably to makes sure the driver was installed OK: As root, type command: ndiswrapper -l to verify the Windows drivers were installed.

If that gives an error, you need to go back through ndiswrapper installation again.

Also as root, try command: iwconfig and see if it finds any wireless interfaces.

Thank you for replying to my post. I have tried what you have suggested and have received the following results:

athleone@athleone-desktop:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for athleone:
root@athleone-desktop:/home/athleone# ndiswrapper -l
prisma02 : driver installed
device (2001:3701) present (alternate driver: p54usb)
root@athleone-desktop:/home/athleone# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

What should I do next? Please reply, I am really desperate for help.
