Cisco AE2500 USB Drivers for Backtrack 5r2


Hi everyone from LQ! I got a question but I want to say what a awesome site! I have already fixed a few problems I was having with BT5 just by browsing around. I also learned a few new things Well, heres my problem. I have a Compaq Laptop with a built in WIFI card. BT5 recognizes and is able to use it as I want it to. Now... Im still in noob stages with BT even though I had all the other BTs before. Just never knew what I was doing. LOL. Slowly over the years I've learned a few things. But, this is my issue, I have a Cisco AE2500 USB Network Adapter that I want to use with BT5. I've done alot of searching on Google, and nothing really helped me. BT5 wont recognize it after numerous ways. But the usb dogle works on windows. Im booting BT5r2 from live cd. I know I need to find the usb drivers. BUT! Im not sure where to find the backtrack drivers for my device, how to download them, and how to install them so I can use it. I have the windows 7 drivers for the usb. Is there a possible way I can use those drivers? If not, can anyone find these drivers for a "Cisco AE2500 USB" and a "how to install them?"

--thanks
