hi,
I added to my machine PC running debian and others, ubuntu, pc wireless card :, the same card I used it on other machine, it ran nice.

On my machine, the lspci gives :
03:02.0 Class ffff : RaLink rt2561/rt61 802.11g pci (rev ff)

On the other machine i have Ethernet Controller instead of Class ffff

I installed the divers firmware-ralink and other realtek ..... and network-manager, but nothing.
on other machine, that was enough to run it correctly.

and ifconfig dosn't give wlan0, iwconfig did't give characteristic of wlan0

does this mean that the bios didn't recognize it as a network card

thanks for help

Try this.

Install ndiswrapper. Download latest Windows drivers for this card and extract them. Then, run ' diswrapper - i path_to_drivers/rt61.inf '.
After these steps, run:
ndiswrapper -l
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
sudo ndiswrapper -m

Then the driver should work fine.

thank for reply,
the problem is probably not the driver, since on other machine, with the same firmware-ralink, the card is working.
I used the program hardinfo, and my card is not listed, while with lspci ( after update-pciids), i get now
03:02.0 Unassigned class [ffff]: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI [1814:0301]
thanks for help
best regards
