problem with "Asus WL-138g V2 Wireless PCI Adapter"

maiden2 · 12-08-2007, 10:45 PM

I can't browse the internet because my ubuntu (or xubuntu, in it I met the same problem...) is not able to activate my PCI network adapter:

i'm using a Asus WL-138g V2 Wireless PCI Adapter, and the ubuntu installation process seems not to let it work properly (as in windows xp I were used to see).

what should I do?

reading the asus quick start guide, it says that i should use Red Hat 7.1 or higher, is it possible I can't use my loved ubuntu OS?

thanks in advance

Try here also for ubuntu documentation: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx

I'm using Gutsy 0710 and was able to get it working with the restricted drivers manager.
