ok..I am a linux beguinner...I looked all over the place and found some "how to" tried to follow the instructions but it seems that I am missing something..
In a desktop I installed yoper (love it
and tried to install and configure the wireless netcard dwl-g510:
Installed the driver and when I enter in a bash shell "ndiswrapper"
I get "mrv8k51 present"
then I do modprobe ndiswrapper and the kwifimanager shows the green bars stating that the card is active...
after that I tried all what I could find but not go
I have changed the router to static and tried all the configs that I read in the net but I can't get a connection...
I think that I don't have an IP address yet even though I run the ip configuration in the yoperconf, netcardconfig...
Please help so I can troubleshoot the ip "binding" to the card.
conection speed green bar is showing the right speed ( 54Mbits)
Thanks.
EDITED:
in the yoper wifimanager I have:
Signal strenght: 100
the connection speed green bar is showing the right speed ( 54Mbits)
Access point: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Local IP: unavailable
Frequency [chanel]: ? [0]
Please help ...I am almots there...I will keep searching meanwhile....
EDITED:
seems that I should have a file called ifcfg-wlan inside of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and I don't "http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?postid=854804"
I will try to make one
and will post the results
EDITED:
made one ifcfg-wlan0 instead of ifcfg-wlan and set the boot to NO in ifcfg-eth0 and got a mac and name from the wireless router , frequency channel but got no IP yet...
I will keep looking but if anybody can post the fix I would appreciated very much...see.. I only now little from linux....
