I am running the 64-bit version of Ubuntu 10.10 that I have dual booted with a 32-bit version of Windows 7 and can't seem to get my Netgear WN311B wireless adaptor to work while I am in Ubuntu but obviously works fine in Windows.

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

You could have tried ndiwrapper, as i did, and got stuck with a kernel module pretty buggy and crashy, or could have just used the common native driver, without hi-power feature.
To achieve my zen state, i had to work around with a base native driver, a feature-filling patch to apply to it, and the only working kernel supposed to work with, 2.6.27.
That's a brief step by step path:
get the base driver (rtl8187 in our case) and decompress: [URL]
get the featuring patch "rtl8187_2.6.27.patch" from: [URL] and extract it in the base driver directory
then apply it with: ~$ patch -Np1 -i rtl8187_2.6.27.patch
remove old modules, compile and install new one (as root)
~# rmmod r8187 rtl8187
~$ make
~# make install
Now you should have a new net device (wlan#) under iwconfig you can use as usual.
To turn on the hi-power capability: ~# iwpriv wlan0 highpower 1
and set the transmission power value (may be dangerous, see below): ~# iwconfig wlan0 txpower <value of 0 to 35> # i use 30, should be around one watt
and wuel you're done you have your pen running strong and stable on the 2.6.27 kernel.
For a detailed reference and clarification about txpower sets, see the aircrack page: [URL]
Okay I've got a Netgear N-150 WNA 1100 USB WiFi adapter, it doesn't work in Ubuntu it's not supported. There should be a way to make it work with ndiswrapper. I tried and failed before and due to other non related circumstances I had to reinstall Ubuntu. What are the steps to install ndiswrapper and it's dependency's on a fresh Ubuntu installation that cannot connect to the internet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get a NetGear WNDA3100 working on another computer with ubuntu. I've searched and searched, but all the threads and answers say to install some ndiswrapper thing. One problem with that though- the desktop doesn't have any adapters at all, I'm trying to install the WNDA3100 just to get internet in the first place. I have no internet, cannot download and install anything, and I can't use any apps or commands that don't come with the default Ubuntu 10.04. Please help me out here!

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.

However if I go to "places" from the top bar, which opens Nautilus, I can access it and all the files on it.

i need help getting 64 bit ubuntu 9.04 or mint 7 to recognise my rangemax/netgear wn311t wifi adapter.the drivers work out of the box in 64 bit Vista, and will work fine in 32 bit 9.0/mint 7 via ndis wrapper.when i use the drivers from the netgear website in 64 bit 9.04/mint7 i get an error " invalid driver." I searched the net for a 64 bit driver and found driver that recongnises the card in 64bit 9.04/mint 7 but when i go into terminal the result shows that that the card is "unclaimed" (it also says unmanaged i think)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been searching through these forums the past couple of day as I have just installed Ubuntu 9.10 64bit on my custom whitebox. I have had windows 7 on it in the past, but want something different now.
I guess my main question is if anyone knows a simple to install wireless card (pci or usb) for ubuntu 9.10 64. I currently have the Netgear WG311V3 PCI card installed, but I can not for the life of me get it to work under Ubuntu. I have tried numerous different methods from search google, these posts, etc. but I can not get any of them to work.
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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'll plug in my Netgear wireless USB adapter, and it'll recognize it right away. I'll type in my WEP key, and then it will say configuring. It will then bring up a "Secrets for [router]", with a ASCII key, and I'll check the pass phrase I entered, which is the correct WEP key. I then hit okay, and it says "setting up network address", and then brings up the Secrets page over again.
This particular wireless card works fine on Ubuntu, and worked fine on Zenix, but for some reason, won't work with Kubuntu.
I have managed to setup ndiswrapper and am able to see my wireless network but cannot connect to it.
I am using NDISWRAPPER and a Netgear WNDA3100 driver (I think this is Atheros-based) to connect through a Netgear WN111 USB Wireless dongle to my existing wireless network. I am running 9.04 on a Fujitstu-Siemens laptop.
I am aware that the WNDA 3100 driver is not the intended driver for my WN111 dongle, but it is the only driver that showed "hardware present" when loaded. All others (I tried perhaps 5 or 6) showed driver installed but no info about hardware.
When I try to connect to the network it tries for a while, occasionally prompting me for the passphrase, and then eventually stops.
I would like some help figuring out what else I need to do. I feel I am nearly at the solution. My guesses are as follows (for what they're worth):
1. Could it be something to do with the WPA security?
2. Could it be something to do with this, output from dmesg?

3. Could I need to set some further parameters in the network manager?
Just installed yesterday - and I love it so far except my wireless turns on for about 5 minutes, then disconnects.
In order to get internet back I have to either restart or uncheck "Enable Networking" and then recheck it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased a WNR3500L wireless router and it works great with Windows. However, when I boot up Ubuntu 11.04, it cannot find other wireless networks in the area. Despite this, my internet connection speed to my computer remains unaffected...the only issue is that it cannot pick up other networks.
From searching on Google and on these forums, I've learned that most routers don't work "out of the box" with Ubuntu...NDISWrapper and additional drivers must be installed in order to make them work to their full potential. But alas, I am a super-newb...I don't know what to do from here on to get my Netgear WNR3500L router to pick up other wireless signals.
