Hardware :: Netgear WG511v2 Wireless Adapter - Almost Working

Dec 17, 2008

Running HH on a little Toshiba Satellite something-or-other laptop (I want to say A25, but who knows), Verizon FIOS router (wired and wireless).

NetGear WG511v2 adapter is so close to working...

Didn't seem to want to work with ndisgtk, so I ran ndiswrapper from terminal, using driver folder I copied from my Win2K partition.

(Had to do a cp WG511v2.sys WG511v2XP.sys, as the .inf file referred to the latter, but such did not exist; cp seemed to do the trick.) And now, survey says:

Code:

Code:

Code:

In "Network Settings", the card detects a few wireless networks (including my own in-home router). Status LED flashes constantly (which I interpret to be hunting), and every several seconds, it goes solid while activity LED flashes a few times (which I interpret to be finding a network, attempting communication), then activity LED ceases to flash and status LED goes back to flashing (which I interpret to be failing and going around again). Using DHCP, just like the other computers that connect without incident.

I have entered my WEP every way I can think of. The dialog lets me choose WEP ASCII or WEP hexadecimal; I have entered the key in all caps and in lowercase, as ASCII and as hex, have entered 0's and O's where applicable. No combination seems to allow it to actually communicate with my router beyond getting rejected. My other laptop and PC (and this laptop, when running Win2K) all connect just fine; none of them use WPA-type passphrases, so I assume that's unnecessary from Ubuntu. Roaming mode gives the same results as described above.

Debian Configuration :: Netgear WG511v2 On A Dell Latitude C600

Apr 1, 2010

I've installed Debian on a Dell Latitude C600 and I've managed to get all of the hardware functioning except the WiFi adapter. The laptop is using a Netgear WG511v2 PCMCIA interface. I've extracted the WG511v2.INF and WG511v2XP.SYS files and I believe they are successfully installed using NDISWRAPPER.

The WiFi adapter's green LED flickers and the yellow LED periodically flashes, which would seem to indicate that the adapter is attempting to connect to a network.

I believe the problem that I'm having is related to configuring the wlan0 interface with the proper security credentials to attach to the WiFi network. I'm using WPA2 with AES for encrypting. The key is 64 hexadecimal characters.

how to configure the wlan0 interface with the proper security credentials. The Network Manager applet only offers WPA2 Personal as a configuration option.

Networking :: NetGear - WN111 V2 Usb Wireless Adapter ?

May 16, 2010

I'm running Slakware 13 (kernel 2.6.29.6) on a inspiron 1525. I use ndiswarper to use the BCM4312 wireless device without any problem but the fact that the driver does not support the Monitor mode. I therefore bought a NetGear WN111 v2 usb stick but I can't get the linux driver.

Even ndiswarper does not work but it's may be because I don't have the right .sys .ins files. (just to try)

So, I wonder if someone has already successfully manged this device working on Slackware 13?

Actually, I don't know if we can make lets say wlan0 and wlan1 working at the same time. I've try many drivers mentioned on Ubuntu forums but none of theme work with me.

Many people talk about wpa_supplicant but I don't know if I really need it to make my wn111v2 working. And what is a firmware?

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Get Wg111t Netgear Wireless Adapter To Work

Mar 5, 2010

i can't get my wg111t netgear wireless adapter to work. I followed the help thing by installing ndisgtk, which installed successfully. I was able to load up the file on the cd that also the help page said. The problem is that the computer won't load up the adapter as it would load up my cd's and flash drive. Here's how i installed ndisgtk. I installed the files ndiswrapper_common, ndiswrapper_1.9, and then the ndisgtk_0.8.5.All of these were for i386.

Ubuntu Networking :: Netgear Wireless N PCI Adapter WN311B-100NAS

Mar 24, 2010

I just bought a Netgear N PCI wireless network card and was hoping Ubuntu 9.10 would recognize it. I installed the card and was using XP on the machine (Dell Dimension 2400) and decided to install 9.10 on this computer instead (XP = slow!). I'm not sure how to get Ubuntu to recognize it. I was hoping this would be a 'plug and play' install

Fedora Networking :: Netgear WG111v2 Wireless Adapter Won't Stay Online

Jan 28, 2010

I just installed Fedora 12 on my HP a430n PC.I used to run Fedora 10, then moved to Linux Mint 7, then to Ubuntu 9.10 and now I am back to Fedora because I want to become more adept with manual package installation and adding repos.When I ran Fedora 12 immediately after then install, before running yum update PackageKit or the software update, it would use my wireless adapter (Netgear WG111v2) and connect to and stay connected to a network just fine. No hiccups.After running the updates and restarting the computer, the wlan won't stay connected for longer than 20 seconds, which is frustrating when trying to install mp3 codecs.

This seems to be a bug in the latest driver update for the WG111v2, but I might be wrong. Anyone have a fix or a way to revert back to the initial driver (I don't know what the original wireless driver was called).

OpenSUSE Install :: WPN111 Wireless Adapter And NETGEAR - Make The Module Load Automatically On Boot ?

Feb 14, 2011

Above adapter can be installed on v10.2 and 11.3 using ndiswrapper:-

1. Copy the 3 driver files from Windows:- like netwpn111.inf, WPN111.sys & ar5523.bin.
(Be carfeul about the exact names, because they have changed over time).

2. sudo ndiswrapper -i netwpn111.inf

3. sudo ndiswrapper -m

4. sudo modprobe ndiswrapper (the adapter should light up at this point and networks will be detected shortly after - see network manager). (Be careful of paths here - e.g. I had to use /sbin/modprobe - so 'whereis' may be necessary to find these commands).

2nd When I reboot, I need to run the modprobe command again. How do I make the module load automatically on boot? Also (and this is minor), can I bypass the KWallet, keyring thing? it seems silly to enter a password for the keyring and then click another password dialog, when I can just as easily enter the password for the network itself.

Ubuntu :: Wireless-G USB Adapter Not Working (sortof)?

Aug 7, 2010

So I bought a linksys wireless-g usb adapter for my desktop because I don't want an ethernet cable running halfway around my house to the router (the router can't move from that location).

it comes with a windows setup disc which i obviously can't use in linux so i just plugged it in and hoped for the best. It seems to turn on, the little light flashes, and I tried connecting to my wireless network in the network manager (using 10.04, gnome), but it just seems to be retrying to connect and every 5 minutes it asks me for the password which I've given it already.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Adapter Not Working / Fix It?

Aug 26, 2010

As the title reads. My wireless adapter does not work when I boot from the Ubuntu 10.04 LiveCD. The adapter in question... tricky. It's this one: [URL]...- however, aside from a mention in one of the comments to a "Ralink RT2780", I don't see any reference to a make/model.

The software that ships with this product is indeed Ralink-branded, but again there's no mention of a specific make/model. So I assume it's just a driver issue, however I've no idea where to begin in my search for one as I can't identify its model number.

Ubuntu :: Wireless Adapter Stopped Working?

Jul 26, 2011

Yesterday I installed many updates on my compaq presario cq60-214dx running ubuntu 11.04.

This morning my 2 year old son was pressing buttons, generally playing with the notebook. When he was done the wireless stopped working. I cannot get it to come back on. What could he have possibly done without entering the password.

I have restarted several times. ifconfig does not show the wireless adapter. iwconfig says its not active. i turned on txpower using iwconfig but still nothing.

Ubuntu Networking :: WG111T Wireless Adapter Not Working?

Feb 28, 2010

I have been searching for days on end trying to get my machine to detect my Netgear WG111T wireless adapter...and I've gotten absolutely nowhere at all.Most tutorials suggest I use ndigstk(sp?), which allows me to use Windows drivers for my adapter. I've been told many times to use the wg111t.inf file, but all I've been able to come up with is the w11t.inf file. Whenever I start up the Windows Wireless Drivers application, I usually get a popup which tells me "Unable to see if Hardware is detected"--yet when I hit the OK prompt, next to the w11t.inf file, it says "Hardware detected --Yes", yet I still have gotten nowhere. I grasp some basics of Linux, but overall I'm still pretty new to it--and I have a big headache from the whole thing.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, my install is 9.04, so if 9.10 resolves this, how would I go about upgrading without downloading an ENTIRELY new disc (I have a horrid internet connection, it'd take HOURS to download the 699MB ISO, so perhaps make that a last resort)

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Adapter Not Working After 10.4 Upgrade?

Aug 7, 2010

I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.4 on my Dell Inspiron 6400 yesterday (32-bit). Everything was running great, but when I turned it on today my wireless adapter is no longer working and the hardware switch doesn't do anything. It's working in Windows fine so it can't be the hardware.Here is some information:

Adapater name: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)

Code:
iwconfig:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11abg ESSID:off/any[code]....

Restarting the network with 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart' didn't work.I've tried Ubuntu several times before but usually there is one small issue which makes me go back to Windows. I love 10.4 so I hope I can get this working so I can stay on Ubuntu!
