SurfahBoy808 Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 were you looking for a link? http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/ I've also heard of this one http://www.linuxant.com/company/ I used to have a Belkin PCI g card but returned it and got a netgear. But I can't get it to work. Are any of the major brands wireless cards supported without a 3rd party driver? D-Link? Linksys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imwithstupid Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 (edited) sometimes people have problems with the rpmed version of ndiswrapper so you should probably try to compile the most recent version found on sourceforge. Then get both the inf and sys files from the windows installer and put them in a folder. Then type "ndiswrapper /<foldername>/<drivername>.sys" and if all goes well it'll work...otherwise there are lots of people here who can prolly help you out. Oh and the table on ndiswrapper's website is often wrong about the chipset acutally used so rely on what harddrake tells you the chipset is (use the PCI id number thingy...its almost always accurate).
