USB Wireless Adapter

michalng · 05-15-2006, 12:13 AM

I had just installed SUSE10.1 and is still struggling with things like video isn't working properly and user account password not recognised (wierd)

Anyway, I needed to buy a USB Wireless Adapter so that I can get this computer onto the wireless network. Went shopping around and found Linksys, Netgear, D-Link and Balkin but all does not officially supports linux.

So, anyone using any of these (above brand) USB Wireless Adapter and is work with ndiswrapper under SUSE10.1 Please drop a note to confirm and I go get one.

MANY THANKS in advance.

Ndiswrapper works with any windows driver from the manufactorer's support site. I personally dont have 10.1 installed, but I've had experience w/ ndiswrapper on 10.0 and FC5 and my linksys and netgear both work seamlessly. Only complaint is lack of native linux support, but thats just a matter of time.
