after 1 month without wireless finally got it working
I was working with FC3 and nothing but problem and kernel panic and system crashes all the time I could never had it working, so I did a distro change I when with Mandrake 10.1 and started working on ndiswrapper-1.1 and only took me 2 hrs to get it working....I'm typing with my laptop wireless speed is great....
wireless card wpc54g v2 on the here i got /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 DEVICE=wlan0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=00:0f:66:b7:0c:28 METRIC=10 MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=no WIRELESS_MODE=Managed WIRELESS_ESSID=USR8054 NEEDHOSTNAME=yes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the only problem I got is that everytime I reboot it won't pick up my wlan0 so what I do is on the terminal su..(superuser) then modprobe ndiswrapper it start working againg... any sugestion how can I solve this problem,,,,wlan0 starting at the boot time.. |
Good for you! It took me a long time too, because the linux-wlan-ng drivers didn't know how to recognize my model. But now it works, been using it for a few months. Surprisingly stable, and fewer dropouts than the Windows drivers.
EDIT: Didn't see that last bit... :slap: You need to add this to /etc/modules.conf: alias wlan0 ndiswrapper Then it should work. |
thank you WMD ... it worked ok
