How do I get my D-Link AirPlus DWL 520+ Working Under Mandriva 2006?


I am absolutely clueless as to how to get my wireless card working here. I don't even know where to start. I'm sorry if I'm not providing enough information, if you need to know more about my setup, ask and I might know.

Look throught the HCL (Hardware Compatiable List) from the tab above. In there it some dlink 520+ cards. One has a link to install that should work for many distros. http://www.houseofcraig.net/acx100_howto.php

Only other option is doing the ndiswrapper setup using the windows driver. Search here and google for more on ndiswrapper.

Hope this helps.
