CentOS 5 Networking :: Install Ralink RT61 Driver (Edimax EW-7128g)

Mar 23, 2009

I have just purchased an Edimax EW-7128g with Ralink RT61 chip and physically installed it in a system running CentOS 5.2. Trying to follow the installation instructions, I get the following:

[root@webtest Module]# make all
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/build SUBDIRS=/root/drivers/2007_1210_RT61_Linux_STA_v1.1.2.0/Module modules
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [all] Error 2

The problem is that although /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/build exists, it appears to be a link:

[root@webtest Module]# ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/build
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Mar 23 15:34 /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/build -> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.el5-i686

Ubuntu Networking :: Edimax EW-7128g Wireless PCI Not Working With Ralink RT2561/RT61 Chipset

Sep 5, 2010

Just installed Ubuntu Studio 10.04 and everything seems to be working nicely except I have no networking.

The card does not appear in the Network Settings GUI. The only 3 tabs I have are General, DNS, and Hosts.

A screen grab is attached.

I'm a long time Windows user trying out some of the best Linux creative apps I can find. So, Ubuntu Studio was a no brainer. I checked the manufacturer's site for linux drivers and they are available, but I don't know how current. (Edimax site, not RaLink's site.) I opened the file and it looks like it needs to be compiled and installed to work. Something I know almost nothing about. The card is listed as supported in this forum for Ubuntu 9x but I can't find information about it for 10.04

PS. I have no networking on the system but I can transfer files via USB flash drives if needed.

Some System info:

Code:

1 ) Machine Brand and Model (PC/Laptop): Dell Precision 650

2 ) Wireless Brand, Model and Wireless Chipset: 03:0c.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI

3 ) check interface: robert@ubuntu:~$ ifconfig

Ubuntu Networking :: RaLink RT2561/RT61 Wireless Card Installation?

Sep 13, 2010

I'm having trouble installing my RaLink RT2561/RT61 wireless card. It seems that this driver causes problems for all ubuntu users, and I've tried a couple of work arounds, none of which work for me.

Firstly I downloaded the most recent driver from here: [URL]...RT2501PCI/mPCI/CB(RT61:RT2561/RT2561S/RT2661) is the driver I downloaded. Next I performed the following steps:
Code:
robinsjp@home-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential gcc
Reading package lists... Done

OpenSUSE Network :: RaLink RT2561 / RT61 Working In LiveCD Not In Actual HDD Install

Aug 2, 2010

I am and Ubuntu user, and recently became interested in KDE 4, since it obviously looks much more modern that GNOME. I tried Kubuntu, but didn't really like it that much, so I downloaded openSUSE 11.3 and installed it on an old 40 GB IDE hard drive, leaving my existing Windows/Ubuntu HD untouched. The only problem is the Wi-Fi doesn't work, although it did work on the liveCD. Issuing the command gives the Wi-Fi card as being a RaLink RT2561/RT61. Does anyone know how to fix this? I really hope I can get this fixed, as I've heard some great things about openSUSE KDE, and would love to make it my primary OS, completely dumping Ubuntu. I'm using the 64-bit CD.

General :: Edimax EW-7128G WIFI In Ubuntu 9.10?

Feb 23, 2010

i had an old Dell collecting dust and i've wanted to dive into Linux so i bought a wireless card for it. It's an Edimax EW-7128G, the reason i bought it is because there were multiple positive reviews on how well it works in linux. Ok, so i don't know linux at all. I installed Ubuntu to learn. I installed the card and as far i can see it's not working. It came with a disc with linux drivers yet i don't know how to go about using them.

Ubuntu :: Ralink RT2561/RT61 Wireless Card On 9.10?

Apr 26, 2010

About a year ago I had a different computer with this same wireless card (edimax EW-7128g) and it was recognized immediately after I installed ubuntu 8.10. I found this hardware compatibility page, and it says it is compatible, at least on 9.04.

After reading this old guide I found:[URL].. I downloaded the latest driver, and followed the instructions (i had to refer to the readme too, some things were slightly different which I'm assuming is because it's the 2010 driver not the version referred to in that tutorial) up until:

(e) copy the rt61.ko driver file to the modules directory then load it
Code:
$ sudo cp rt61.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/.
$ sudo depmod
$ sudo modprobe rt61

I don't see where rt61.ko is.I've got the information for my wireless connection edited into /etc/Wireless/RT61STA/ rt61sta.dat iwconfig shows pretty much default stuff, no mention of my wireless card or any type of connection, though the card does show up at the bottom of the lspci query. I added the wireless connection information into the "Network Connections" prompt in the preferences, but obviously that's not accomplished much of anything for obvious reasons. Should I just install 9.04? Judging from this account, getting this wireless card to work would be a hell of a lot easier.

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.10 RNX-N250PC Ralink Chip RT3062 Driver Install

Nov 3, 2010

I'm trying to get a Rosewill RNX-N250PC wireless card w/ ralink rt3062 chip to work in a new build. I am able to see the card in Device Manager, but can't get the driver to work despite trying many of the suggestions I've read elsewhere. I installed build-essentials and downloaded the driver from ralink. I unzipped the folder, and started to follow README as well as this thread rt3062 [URL]. So, I've adjusted MODE and TARGET as instructed in Makefile. I also adjusted the following sections of red text from Makefile:

ifeq ($(PLATFORM),PC)
# Linux 2.6
LINUX_SRC = /lib/modules/$(2.6.35-22-generic)/build
# Linux 2.4 Change to your local setting
#LINUX_SRC = /usr/src/linux-2.4
LINUX_SRC_MODULE = /lib/modules/$(2.6.35-22-generic)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
CROSS_COMPILE =
endif

Then I set HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y and HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y in /os/linux/config.mk in the driver folder.
Then I code: $ make (also tried sudo make with same result)
and get:
make -C tools
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/das/2010_07_16_RT3062_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.0/tools'

CentOS 5 Networking :: Rt61 PCI Wireless: Freeze Upon Shutdown With Static IP Configuration

Jun 24, 2009

I have one desktop PC I'd like to use as a jukebox. It's installed in the basement as a black box, with only SSH access, and it has got a minimal CentOS 5.3 install with MPD and NCMPC. It's connected to the hi-fi in the basement, so I can stream music to it when I'm downstairs. Since I didn't want to use cables everywhere, I bought a PCI wireless card, with a RT2561 chip.

Until recently this card worked OK with Linux. Recent kernel version even have out-of-the-box support for it, except of course you still have to download the firmware from the Ralinktech website.

I gave the thing a static IP configuration by editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0, interface went up fine, I can ping the machine and SSH into it OK. Now the only problem is, when I do a shutdown -h now, the machine "hangs" while trying to bring wlan0 down. (In case you wonder: I temporarily attached a monitor to it, since wanting to know what goes on while shutting down in an SSH session is a chicken-and-egg situation :)). I actually have to hard-reboot it (by pressing RESET).

I've bought an Edimax EW-7811Un nano USB wifi adapter, and I'm really cheesed off at the moment because I can't get it to work on my laptop. I've got Ubuntu 10.04 on it. I really want this tiny dongle to work with my computer. Ubuntu is much fats than Windows, and I use it all the time, but my current wifi donlge is an old big monstrosity!

Ubuntu Networking :: Wifi Setup - Cannot Install The Driver And The "Ralink Wireless LAN"

Dec 29, 2010

I am dual booting with windows xp on a dell computer I recently acquired. I am running Ubuntu 10.10. The computer didn't have a wireless connection so I installed a wireless pci adapter from a company called ZONET. I installed it perfectly on windows xp, however, I cannot install the driver and the "Ralink Wireless LAN" on Ubuntu. I inserted the cd, and opened the setup.exe file with Wine Windows Program Loader (I have installed Wine 1.3 by following the instructions on http://www.winehq.org/download/deb and clicking on the link that says "click here".

I am currently temporarily connected to the internet by borrowing my main computers ethernet cable). I followed the instructions on the InstallShield Wizard only to have two windows pop up saying there is an error (see attached image).

Fedora Networking :: Ralink Driver Keeps Resetting F15 / Fix It?

Jun 25, 2011

Well, I reinstalled after this update fiasco we just had and now I am having issues with my driver resetting. I open terminal and type in:

Quote:

sudo rmmod rt2800usb

Finishes properly. I then pull my USB device, plug it back in, new driver kicks in. Wireless then works fine. However, upon reboot, it's back to using the rt2800usb driver, which doesn't work. So I head back to terminal and repeat the step above and all's well after.

I am fairly new to Fedora, so how can I actually get Fedora to completely blacklist the rt2800usb driver?

Ubuntu Networking :: Ralink Rt2070 - Can't Install In 10.04?

It was recommended for my older Compaq desktop with a Celeron processor and 256mb of ram. I got the windows driver installer installed, but it was looking for a inf file and the driver I have on the cd is an executable file for an installer, so it wouldn't work. The cd also has a linux driver, but I do not know how to use terminal to install it. I'm at my wits end. I feel pretty stupid, because I know nothing about linux.

Ubuntu :: Edimax 7781Un Wireless USB Modem Driver Compilation

Mar 31, 2011

I recently bought the Edimax 7781Un wireless modem specifically because it works with Linux. The OS does recognise the device and tries to connect to the router, however it connects and has the two semi-circles going round then it eventually disconnects. I thought it was my wireless device with little signal strength therefore I bought this one. However this one connected once for 20 seconds, 89% strength and disconnects. I booted up win7 and it works fine, so I have put it down to the driver or the OS.

Trying to compile the driver, I am up to the make step after following instruction here. I type make, it does a few things and errors a fair few things, the last line ending in [make] *** [LINUX] Error 2

Another possibility (I think) for this connection problem could be my AMP installation, however I have neither apache, php or mysql running and I still have the problem.I read somewhere that make requires more files, is this true? And if it is, where can I get it without an internet connection on my linuxbox? (I am currently using my brothers w7 computer).

CentOS 5 Networking :: Get/install Eth Driver For HP Elitebook 8530?

Oct 1, 2009

We have a process whereby we used a rescuecd and partimage to take a snapshot image of one of our laptops, then we use it to lay down the snapshot on other laptops as requests for them come in. The image was created on an HP (Compaq) 8510, and has always worked laying it down on other 8510s.

So now we get a stack of HP Elitebook 8530s, which will be our new standard. So we're testing how laying down the old 8510 image will work laying it down on the new 8530s. As far as putting down the filesystem image, all looks great. However, we'reseeing the msg "bringing up interface eth0: e1000 device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization." Which I believe is his way of telling me "sorry, whatever driver you've given me can't drive this ethernet card." And needless to say, ifconfig -a doesn't even show anything on eth0.

I'm thinking (hoping) that if we get and install the proper driver to drive the ethernet adapter that's onboard the 8530, we can get this guy some network connectivity, at which point the rest of the tweaks we need to make should be comparatively easy.

how to get the proper driver and b) how to install it? Keep in mind this machine has no connectivity, so I'll have to sneakernet it over from my laptop to the machine.

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Use The Ralink RT2860 Driver 11.2 - (error: Invalid Driver Rt2860.inf)?

Feb 2, 2010

I had a problem with using ndiswrapper to install Windows driver on Netgear WN511TA wireless adapter card. Problem solved by replacing Netgear WN511TA with Airlink101 AWLC6080 PCMCIA wireless adapter to work in my triple-boot XP Pro/Ubuntu Karmic/openSUSE 11.2 Toshiba laptop and using the latest Linux driver version 2.3.0.0 dated January 29, 2010 from Ralinktech site. I followed driver instruction in a Ubuntuforums tutorial (Howto: Ralink RT2860(m) PCI(e) RT2860...on Intrepid).

I am wondering if I can use the same Linux driver (RT2860sta) for openSUSE 11.2 on my triple-boot XP Pro/Karmic/openSUSE laptop, ie. copying over instead of building and compiling driver from source again, because I don't quite understand the build instruction given in the README file of Ralink's Linux driver file. Specifically, I don't know how to "define the GCC and LD (?) of the target machine, and define the compiler flags CFLAGS(?), modify your need (?)", etc. I already have gcc, cpp and make installed on the Ubuntu and openSUSE parts of my machine. I did try ndiswrapper in openSUSE but it doesn't work for the Windows version of the latest Ralink driver (error: invalid driver rt2860.inf).
