Guest dane Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Hi, I have installed Mandrake v 9.0 (using KDE), but being new to Linux, I do not know how to go about installing my DLink DSL-200 USB modem. When I go through the network/ADSL setup, I find my modem model is not listed. How do I go about getting drivers for it and installing it. It's a breeze in Windows, but in Linux I am clueless. Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtweidmann Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 I've never setup an ADSL USB modem under Linux, but I guess it will be similiar to the normaly USB modems. First try and find out what chipset your modem uses. D-Link in all likely hood just bought a refrence design off someone else, and it is the name of the refrence design you need. For instance my sound card is an ABit AU10, but it uses the FM801 chip, so I use the FM801 driver. Hopefully this will be listed in the install wizard, if not its a matter of tracking down a driver on the web. Hope this helps!

mtweidmann Posted February 28, 2003 Report Share Posted February 28, 2003 Just done a quick search myself, here is what I came up with: What appears to by a rpm of the driver: http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/download.php?lang=en List of modems the above driver supports: http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/modems.php?lang=en And the instructions for it: http://eciadsl.flashtux.org/doc.php?lang=en (Thank you danielnevans at Linux Knowledge Base) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
