ndiswrapper is preinstalled. Contact Airlink+ support for a (simple)
how-to I wrote, and let'm know you run Linux.--CAN SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE
THIS HOW-TO AVAILABLE, AIRLINK+ IS NOT VERY HELPFUL WITH PROVIDING IT
- Other: Works on Fedora Core 3 It locked up my laptop when
initially loaded with the stock 2.6.9-1.681_FC3 kernel. After
installing the 2.6.9-1.681_FC3.stk16 16K stack kernel as recommended on
the Distribution page the driver loaded and "just worked". The steps in
the Installation page and the Distribution page were awsome and worked
perfectly.

- pciid: 1814:0201 (rev 01)
- Driver: ftp://ftp.a-link.com/wl54h/WL54driver2.2.6.0.zip
- Other: Seems to work great so far. No hic-cups at all. I tried
the official source RT2500 driver before this, which is horrible.
Ndiswrapper is definitely the way to go for this chipset. Note that not
all Averatecs have the RT2500, some have the broadcom 54G: [If this is
the case see entry for "Acer Aspire 1511" above and get the HP driver.
The Win2k version worked for me on Ubuntu 5.10]. Also note that if you
try to use the stock RT2500 drivers, or the stock Averatec RT2500
drivers with this card, you will get kernel panics, death and
destruction. But if you use the A-Link drivers above (which are really
just older, less complicated RT2500 drivers) for Windows 2000, you will
have no problems, and much more reliability! NOTE: DO NOT USE WINXP
DRIVERS, USE WIN2K FOR MORE STABILITY. ndiswrapper version 1.0rc1 works
well with latest driver from ralinktech.com (tested with driver version
09/09/2004, 2.02.08.0000).

- Other: Works well with Ndiswrapper 1.0 and CDROM WinXP driver
on Gentoo with Kernel 2.6.11. ASUS Downloaded driver fails.; Problems
with new driver versions and ndiswrapper 1.x (System Freeze), but the
driver on CD mrv8k51 (ASUS,12/24/2003,2.2.0.20) works fine with
ndiswrapper 1.5 (1.6rc2 is more stable) on linux 2.6.14.2 and 16kstacks
(I will test if it works without the 16k patch). Works better with
win98 driver for the card D-Link DWL-G510 [ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Wireless/dwlg510/Drivers/dwlg510_driver_100.zip] (manual directory).
- Other: Ubuntu Dapper comes with a native, but not working Marvell driver [[30]].
To use ndiswrapper, you must prevent it from loading at boot, e.g. by
removing the mrv8k.ko file from /lib/modules/...kernel.... The DLink
Win98 driver works, but I see a few system freezes. Using the newer,
downloaded Asus Win98 driver (after renaming mrv8ka50.sys to
mrv8ka51.sys) the system often hangs at boot, but is more stable
afterwards. With both drivers, booting is slow.

- Other: Using Ndiswrapper 1.5 and the above driver with no
problems. Suse 10 requires some extra help though with this wlan card.
In order to work with Suse 10 x86_64, install ndiswrapper and driver
then run modprobe ndiswrapper. After that, use Yast to add new network
card. Select Device Type = Wireless, Configuration Name = wlan0 (or
wlanX where X is the next wireless card number), Hardware Configuration
Name = bus-pci-0000:XX:XX.X (replace the X's with the pci location of
the device from the output of 'lspci -v') -- for example, my lspci -v
returned ':03:02.0' before my BCM4318 card, therefore my Configuration
Name is 'pci-bus-0000:03:02.0', Module Name = ndiswrapper, and lastly
in Options, put irq=XX where XX is the IRQ number also returned in the
output from lspci -v. Click Next and then enter the AP Name and key
information if this applies to you. After you finish that and finish
the configuration, restart and press F2 at the Suse 10 boot menu.
**VERY IMPORTANT** Add the boot option of 'noapic' (NOT 'noacpi') and
continue to boot. This option is required for Suse 10 x86_64 to see and
use the BCM4318 card. Hope this helps!

- pciid: 1799:6001 (rev 20)
- Driver: [35] (click on) ndis5x-8180(170).zip
- Other: This PCI card works with ndiswrapper v0.10 when you use
RTL8080 driver, not Belkin driver. The PCIID of this card is different
from Realtek driver's supported PCIID, so you need to tell ndiswrapper
to use realtek driver for 1799:6001. So execute "ndiswrapper -d
1799:6001 net8180". Now make sure ndiswrapper got it right by checking
the output "ndiswrapper -l". It should print "net8180 driver present,
hardware present".
- Other: Card also works using (173).zip driver, with
Ndiswrapper 1.7 on 2.6.15-rc7 and 1.8 on 2.6.15 (with 4K stacks!) on a

- Other: Using Fedora 3 kernel-2.6.9-1.667.stk16.i586. This PCI
card works with ndiswrapper v0.12 when you use the Belkin driver
supplied on CD with the card (probably also with the drivers available
at http://www.belkin.com).
The PCI card did not work with ndiswrapper v0.12 and the RTL8080
driver. Neither driver worked with ndiswrapper-1.0rc3. Just follow the
standard ndiswrapper installation instructions.

- Toshiba Satellite 4015CDT, Debian Sarge, kernel 2.6.8 /
ndiswrapper 0.10. The Belkin driver did not work for me, it loaded but
failed to do anything useful whatsoever. An ndiswrapper -l using the
realtek driver reported the hardware not present. By copying the
Bel6020.inf file from the Belkin driver and the rtl8180.sys file from
the realtek driver into the same directory, and replacing every
instance of the string "Bel6020.sys" with "rtl8180.sys" I was able to
get the card work satisfactorily. (Best Solution)
- Acer TravelMate 240 series. Follow the same procedure as in
Toshiba Satellite above. Tested on debian unstable, 2.6.16-2-686 kernel
with headers. I have compiled the ndiswrapper(1.6) module for the
kernel from source, since apt-get did/does not install it.
- Dell Latitude CPi, Debian Sarge, kernel 2.6.7 / Ndiswrapper
0.10-1. After first trying with the Belkin driver, fiddeling the mode
back and forward between Ad-Hoc and Managed mode without much success I
switched driver to the one from RealTek?. Which works without any
trouble what so ever.
- Other: Dell Latitude C840, Mandrake 10, kernel 2.6.3-15mdk /
Ndiswrapper 0.9. WEP works with non-broadcasting essid. Managed mode
requires several attempts to get activated. I have to toggle between
the 2 modes (Ad-Hoc and Managed) to get the link LED on the PCMCIA card
to lit up.
- IBM Thinkpad T23, Debian testing, kernel 2.6.10, ndiswrapper
1.1rc1@050217 (nightly). Using the Debian packages did not work, so
first get rid of packages ndiswrapper-source/utils/modules, then
install the nightly build (both utils and driver of course). Then
download the ndis-driver from realtek, and install with ndiswrapper -i.
By some reason, the .conf-files in /etc/ndiswrapper/net8180/ will be
called 10EC:8180.5.conf. Until I changed that into 1799:6020.5.conf
(the PCIID you get from lspci -n), the hardware was not detected with
ndiswrapper -l. As I don't have an AP, I cannot really verify that it
works from here, but it looks promising.

"BCM4306/BCM2050", and Linux utilities have variously reported;
BCM4306, BCM4320, BCM94306. This card has been stable on a Slackware

not work with the SMP kernel.

from ndiswrapper > 0.8 the Belkin drivers did not work at all (Oops
at modprobe, system lockup); I used the Dell drivers (see the rev 03
entry following this one) instead, and now I'm happily running 0.11.

- pciid: 14e4:4320
- Driver: http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R81433.EXE (use bcmwl5a.inf in directory AR)
- Other: I tried to use the belkin driver (bcmwl5.inf) but the
whole system just locked up as soon as I modprobed ndiswrapper.
Apparently the belkin driver works for the older rev 02 cards, but not
rev 03. So I'm suggesting this for folks with the Rev 03 card. You can
check the revision by doing a "lspci" The Dell driver has been working
great for me, for about a day.
- Other: The rev.03 problem is probably not all that sinister.
It is caused by the presence of the NetworkType|0 line which ends up in
the*.conf files (from the *.inf driver file). Removing this allows the
supplied Belkin driver to work, although I'd probably recommend using
the Dell R81433.exe driver anyway if only because it's a later version.
For non-US users you may wish to edit the Channel parameter to be 13
(Europe) (or 14 in Japan?). Applies to both PCMCIA and PCI versions
(F5D7000 and F5D7010). #*Other: Using a PCI 2.1 motherboard, I first
had trouble getting the card to associate with a base station, although
everything loaded without errors. This was fixed by moving the card to
the first PCI slot.#*Otherwise, I've had complete success with a Rev 03
card using the supplied Belkin drivers, without modifying the
NetworkType|0 setting. Also, I had some trouble getting the Gentoo Init
scripts to properly initialize the card. The trouble there is several
fold, though one problem appears to be that the init scripts don't give
the card enough time to initialize. N.B.: I had to enter the WEP key
first before the card would associate with any station. I'm using
kernel 2.4.26 with gentoo patches, ndiswrapper-0.11.

doesn't come with the standard package).
- Other:Finally works on my system (the card says "version
1133uk", Debian woody, kernel 2.4.28, ndiswrapper 0.11, Dell drivers,
hand-compiled wirless-tools v27). Here are a few hints if you're having
trouble: (i) try different combinations of ndiswrapper version and
driver (Belkin, Dell). (ii) make sure wireless extension version of
your wireless-tools matches the one of ndiswrapper (Debian woody
wireless-tools were too old, iwconfig wouldn't work), see http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.htm for more information. (iii) wireless won't work if your machine also has another network card connected to the same network.

notes above for F5D7000 starting "The rev.03 problem is probably not
all that sinister", I think they apply). Tried R81433.EXE but this
wouldnt associate with AP in Managed mode, only Ad-hoc, and then
wouldnt work properly.

Driver Release Date: 2005-06-01, Version: 4.00 C from hp website. WPA
has not been tested. iwconfig should display a Signal Strength between
-15 dB and -90 dB. Issue found : nothing critical. Turning on or off
the radio with the button has no effect on wlan (but has on bluetooth).
You sometimes have to wait up to 30s after receiving the signal to get
a MAC and IP address with some wireless receivers. Playing too much and
too fast with rmmod and modprobe can hang the laptop. It looks like the
integrated network card shouldn't be in the same range than the
wireless device (strange), but would require more testing.

since else it segfaults on startup, qualitiy and transferrates should
get even better when the windows-driver gets better. For some
information on how to use WPA with this version look on the
mailinglist, Karl Vogel has submitted a patch, latest cvs of

- Notes: On Ubuntu Breezy Badger iwconfig doesn't work some
reason manage to get to set the key for the access point. Due to that
the connection won't work, even though WPA isn't used. More information
in a forum post (note that the file to edit is /etc/network/interfaces on Ubuntu).
- Notes: On Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper Drake) the above problem
seems to have been resolved; however, for some reason iwconfig releases
the settings made to it (essid & key, or just essid or just key),
perhaps if the wireless connection goes down for extended periods of
time.

- Card: D-Link WUA-1340(USB)
- Chipset: Ralink RT73 (RT2571W)
- usbid: 07d1:3c04
- Windows Driver: The newest driver, 3.0, for the DWL-G122 rev C1 can be used since the definition for both is in there.
- Native linux driver: Download from rt73module, and rt73firmware.
I built the module under Fedora Core 5, kernel 2.6.16.20, and gcc
4.1.0. A header file must be modified as shown in the DWL-G122 rev C1
as stated in the section below for it. Also compiling with gcc 4.1.0
led to errors due the typecasting of a variable pass to
NdisAcquireSpinLock as an unsigned long. I traced the function back to
it's origins, local_irq_save, which does not appear to check for the
presence of an unsigned long. This led to compilation errors. I removed
all invalid typecasts and the module compiled with minor warnings. I
followed the rest of the instructions in the readme file and the driver
now works great with WPAPSK TKIP enabled.
- Other: Before I was able to get the native driver to compile
I used ndiswrapper with the windows drivers and was able to connect to
my wireless network using WPAPSK TKIP with the help of wpa_supplicant.
I had no problems with this, but I prefer to use native drivers where I
can.
- Card: D-Link WUA-2340(USB)

oem47.inf, athfmwdl.sys, ar5523.bin, and oem48.inf, a5agu.sys,
ar5523.bin)
- Other: Able to recognize hardware (ndiswrapper -l showed
hardware pressent) using same procedure as for the DWL-1340, but on
loading the kernal module, wlan0 appeared but was not configurable and
did not respond to ifdown/ifup, so I couldn't get this device to work
with ndiswrapper.

in CD are in .cab format, so i extracted requiered files (.inf, .sys,
etc) from installed drivers of win 98, and then i pasted them on
/etc/ndiswrapper/prisma02 folder. WEP support seems to require that the
card is configured to run in "open" mode, not "restricted", at least
until an IP address is assigned (use "iwconfig key open
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" instead of just "iwconfig key XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX").

Native Linux-usb-driver as of 2005-08-19. RT2500 works OK for USB,
tried in Fedora 4, worked like a charm. (Ivo van Doorn (aka IvD) should
be working on the RT2500USB which is needed. http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Developers is the place to look)
- Driver: 03/11/2004 1.00.13.0 on the CD (also latest found on
dlink's ftp site) works with ndiswrapper-0.12. (No idea what revision
the dongle is.)
- Other: Works with WEP. Linux 2.6.7 and 2.6.9 with ndiswrapper-0.11. Woks with WPA-PSK using wpasupplicant (see the WPA Wiki).
- Driver: 07/15/2004 1.02.00.0000 on the www.dlink.de website works with ndiswrapper-1.1. P/N EDWLG122..B1, FCC ID:KA2DWLG122B1
- Driver: 04/01/2004 1.00.00.0000 from the CD works with
ndiswrapper-1.1 The older(?) driver from binbash.de made problems after
insmodding ndiswrapper in the kernel (see below). I am running Gentoo
Linux with kernel 2.6.11-r6. The driver works with WPA-PKS (TKIP)
- Other: Using kernel 2.6.10-1.770_14.rhfc3.at, can hang
initial modprobe if the dongle is plugged in, unplug it to get past
problem. This version of the dongle is rt2500 based and NOT prism based
(USA dlink site has wrong drivers!)

2.4.26 from ALTLinux (std-up-2.4.26-alt12).
- Other: "lsusb -v" seems to be able to hang the
system at the moment when it scans the D-Link device (probably, this is
not related to ndiswrapper).

- Driver: Latest WinXP driver downloaded from [45].
- Other: Working great!
- Other: Got WPA-PSK encryption working on Debian Linux with
kernel 2.6.15.3. I used ndiswrapper-1.10 with original driver version
2.03 (shipped on CD with the Wireless USB Adapter) and
wpa_supplicant-0.4.8 (got it from wpa_supplicant
) and it is working great. You only have to install the original driver
in ndiswrapper, load the ndiswrapper module, use wpa_supplicant
compiled with Driver-interface for ndiswrapper, then make a
wpa_supplicant config (like in the examples shipped with the sourcecode
of the wpa_supplicant) Edit it with your own key or passphrase and
SSID, and then start wpa_supplicant -w -i wlan0 -c
/path/to/your-created-config-file -D ndiswrapper -B thats all, enjoy

- Other: Works with WEP and WPA with TKIP cipher. May need iwpriv wlan0 ndis_reset when changing essid.
- Other: Dlink driver has worked fairly stable on ndiswrapper
1.2 but is rock solid on ndiswrapper 1.5, at least for me. This was
tested on Arch Linux, kernel 2.6.11 up to 2.6.14, SMP, PREEMPT,
Pentium3, default stack settings. ndiswrapper 1.4 OOPses and locks
hard, unstable, even with uniprocessor kernel. Only WEP was tested.
- Other: I use this card under ndiswrapper 1.2 on a gentoo 2.6.12 kernel without problem. See this thread. One thing: if the network goes down, rmmod ndiswrapper FAST and reinsert it to prevent a kernel panic. Only tested with 1.2.

Dlink#*Driver with "ndiswrapper -i GPLUS.inf" Add "alias wlan0
ndiswrapper" to /etc/modprobe.conf.local. Load driver for the first
time with "modprobe ndiswrapper." Plug in the card. Configure it with
YAST. Be sure that in YAST networkcard setup at Advanced->Hardware
Details the module is set to ndiswrapper. Since SUSE 9.2 ships with
native linux acx-111 driver you might get the wrong driver loaded. The
linux acx-111 driver lacks support for WEP. Have to replug the card
after a suspend to disk. Thanks for ndiswrapper. Other:Also works with
SUSE 9.3. See the readme file
/usr/share/doc/packages/ndiswrapper/README.SUSE. No more replug after
suspend to disk required. Also got WPA working. Only problem was that
there is a typo in the script
/etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/ifup-wireless-wpa ! Correct the typo in
line 188 "WPA_DRIVER=ndiswrapper" !
- Troubleshooting: I used the new driver version 3.10 from

bug: When many stations are available in scan, it gives wrong data
which may crash kernel. Use alternate (more recent) driver: Use driver
for Netgear MA111v1 from ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/ma111_CD_v2.0.zip
and create alias for 2001:3700 to netma111 with 'ndiswrapper -d
2001:3700 netma111'). netma111 doesn't have issues with scanning.

- Driver: Download WindowsXP driver version 300 from D-Link website.
- Distribution: Fedora Core 5
- Ndiswrapper version: 1.16
- wpa_supplicant version: 0.4.9
- Other: WinXP driver ver 300 will not work with the regular
Fedora 5 kernel (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5, i686), due to the 4K stack limit
(you will see this warning when you build ndiswrapper with regular FC5
kernel). Download Fedora Core 5 kernel from Linuxant.com, built with
16K stack. To download the kernel go to Linuxant.com, click Download
under DriverLoader section (choose your distribution and your Kernel
architecture) and you will be taken to a page where you can download
the 16k kernel. For FC5 i686, download the kernel (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5)
and the kernel headers (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp). Install both the
packages. Uninstall any version of ndiswrapper you installed with
regular version of FC5 kernel. Shutdown and reboot your machine with
FC5.stk16 kernel (GRUB will let you choose the kernel). Build
ndiswrapper with the 16K kernel headers. Copy all 4 files (net5211.inf,
cat and the two sys files) present in WinXP drivers ZIP file into one
folder and use the INF file to install the driver. Now your system will
not crash when you execute modprobe ndiswrapper. Follow the rest of the
instructions to configure ndiswrapper. Using wpa_supplicant, I could
get my card to use WPA-PSK, AES and TKIP. I built my wpa_supplicant
with CONFIG_DRIVER_WEXT=y (in addition to CONFIG_DRIVER_NDISWRAPPER=y
and CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE=y). Lastly if you made a mistake in the
wpa_supplicant.conf about the WPA protocol to use to communicate to
with your AP, try rebooting your machine for your changes to take
effect. I kept getting weird errors when I started wpa_supplicant (like
"no keys found" and "driver does not support WPA"). Remeber to use
-Dwext option with wpa_supplicant instead of -Dndiswrapper. cheers.
Ndis rocks !!

- Other: Debian Unstable/Sid with NdisWrapper 0.11. You must
install all three inf files from the driver zip file (I had to force
NDIS to load all three drivers for the one card with the -d option on
each inf). Card works great, but WEP is untested. Works great on
Slackware 10.1 with a 2.6.10 kernel, and Ubuntu Breezy using the latest
version of NdisWrapper.
- Fedora Core 5, Kernel 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5, works fine with
ndiswrapper 1.13, I only needed the LSIPNDS.INF file. I added the line "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper" to the /etc/modprobe.conf
file so that the network configuration gui would pick it up. Once I
applied DNS, IP, Gate, Mask, ESSID, I was running wide open. These are
good inexpensive cards at any WalMart in USA.

ndiswrapper-1.28 from the /root and I could not #*get the card to work.
I then read an article where the author created a #*windrivers

- ndiswrapper: ndiswrapper-1.31. 1.28rc2 works also
- Note: other Broadcom draft n drivers, such as the Dell and
others do not work. They appear to support a device 14e4:4328 but not
4329. Only the newest Linksys driver supports 64 bit. Previous one did
not. According to iwconfig, getting speeds in the 200 Mbit/s range,
even with tx power turned down to 10dBm.
- As far as I can tell, draft N actually works.
- This version of the driver also fixes a rootkit exploit see: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Ou/?p=365
- For older BCM cards, the file bcmwl5.inf does not contain the
required data although I suspect the drivers themselves do. Other
manufacturers such as Dell have released updated drivers fixing the
vulnerability. See: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd&releaseid=R140746&SystemID=INS_PNT_P4_9400&os=WXPX&osl=en&deviceid=9805&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=2&formatcnt=1&libid=5&fileid=187886 which does not include information for 14e4:4329 however.

- Chipset: Ralink RT2500
- pciid: 1814:0201
- Driver 0: Native GPL Ralink driver in Ubuntu Breezy (rt2500
and rt2500-source packages). Installed the source and manually built
with 'make'. Then used Gnome's network configuration to setup the
device. Seems to perform as well as Windows version, but haven't tried
WEP or WPA. My card was labeled WMP54G (EU), bought in 11/2005.
- Driver 1: RT2500.inf from the WMP54Gv4 directory on the CD
(the bundled CD has both v2 and v4 drivers), or download the drivers
straight from Linksys.
- Other: Debian Sarge, 2.4 kernel, and 128-bit WEP. Works
great. Also works with Mandrake 10.1 with the newest versions of
Ndiswrapper, not the one included on the installation CD. Note that
Ralink has provided the source for an official driver at http://www.ralinktech.com/supp-1.htm but I have not tested it yet.

- Driver: Don't use driver that ships with card, it didnt work with ndiswrapper. Use the close source driver from Ralink http://www.ralinktech.com. It compiles for 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.
- Other: The rt2x00 Open Source Project (http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com) have now a driver - but realy beta.
- Other: The Ralink driver works great. It is not a plug and
play, you need your kernel headers, the appropiate gcc (3.4) but when
you can link it together and put it where it loads at startup, it works
great. I am using WPA without any problem.

kernel panic (interrupt-related) upon module load until I set
CONFIG_PCI_MSI=y (and unset CONFIG_4KSTACKS, just in case.) Also, used
"ndiswrapper -i LSTINDS.INF" (NOT lsbcmnds.inf). Works with 64 and
128-bit WEP. Sometimes need to repeat config info (and commit)
repeatedly, else driver & card will ignore requested setup. Also
works with Gentoo 2.6.9-r9, ndiswrapper 0.12 and drivers that came from
CD.
- NEW USER NOTE 12/30/05 by -JSK-: I had lots of problems
getting the settings to take with this card and the above Windows
driver. I finally found that the settings were timing and order
dependent. Here is how I got the card to stick in Managed mode with 128
bit WEP and open authentication:
- ifconfig wlan0 essid $ESSID mode ad-hoc
- sleep 1
- iwconfig wlan0 key $KEY open
- sleep 1
- iwconfig wlan0 key open
- iwconfig wlan0 key on
- sleep 3
- iwconfig wlan0 essid $ESSID mode managed
- sleep 1
- iwconfig wlan0 key $KEY open
- sleep 1
- iwconfig wlan0 key open
- sleep 15
- ifconfig $DESIRED_IP_MASK_BROADCAST_ETC up
- I know it's a hack, but this script works every single time
for me. Before, life was miserable. On debian, you can put this in a
shell script and add a "pre-up" line in your interfaces file instead of
using the "wireless" options. YMMV.
- Other: Working fine on Ubuntu Breezy Badger (kernel 2.6.12)
using ndiswrapper 1.9 / ndiswrapper-utils 1.7 and lstinds.inf driver. --Johnmxl 10:45, 13 February 2006 (PST)

probably in other Linux distributions as well) this card is supported
natively with the acx driver. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75448 --neu or http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1114757&postcount=31 for a summary of the fix --GigaClon

compile but fail to load the module with an unresolved symbol error.
Works great with the driver mentioned above together with WRT54G router
and wpa_supplicant 0.4.6 (rpm binary)., with WPA enabled ("WPA
Enterprise"-mode). Still I was not successful to get the card to
authenticate with the router set to "WPA2 Enterprise"-mode. For SuSE
9.0 you will need to manually add libhistory.so.5 and libreadline.so.5
to your system in order to meet the requirements for wpa_supplicant
(e.g. extract them from the readline-5.0-1.2.i586.rpm )

- Other: Works smoothly, of course ;) - this is the device the
USB extension was originally developed for. WEP is running, WPA is
supported using wpa_supplicant 0.2.5. No problems with both 1.1 and 2.0
host controllers. As with many other USB devices, no success with 2.4
kernels so far. Try to use 2.6.7 or better. There is a native driver
for Prism54 that is working on USB support. View its status at
Prism54.org
- Other: Works with latest Windows Driver from linksys.com. No
success with 2.4 kernels (even with 8k stack). Works with kernel 2.6.11
and 2.6.12. Works smoothly with 2.6.12 and ndiswrapper 1.14.
- Other: Driver from Linksys is old. Alternate driver for Sitecom WL-125 driver at [57] is newer version. With this, the card doesn't disconnect. Tested with card with usbid 1915:2234.

- 2005-03-25 / Drv2.0.1.0, rt2500usb.inf & rt2500usb.sys Notes:
ndiswrapper v1.2-rc1, kernel 2.6.11.7 (also works with grsec2 patch
v2.1.5): works on both USB2.0 (load with modprobe ehci-hcd
log2_irq_thresh=4 to avoid "usb X-Y: reset high speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address Z") and USB1.1 (UHCI (OHCI not tested (yet?))).
WEP works with 64bit and 128bit keys. but bitrate is only 11Mbit/s
Note: rename the configuration file for the adapter once you installed
the drivers (getting them extracted is quite a mess (WINE/Cedega) you
need rt2500usb.*). 'mv /etc/ndiswrapper/rt2500usb/148F\:2570.0.conf
/etc/ndiswrapper/rt2500usb/13b1\:000d.0.conf' should do the trick.
- Driver 1: Linksys Windows XP driver: http://www.linksys.com/download/default.asp
Notes: ndiswrapper v1.1, kernel 2.6.11.7 vanilla: kernel-oops!
ndiswrapper v1.2-rc1 loads fine (EHCI loaded with modprobe ehci-hcd
log2_irq_thresh=4) but oopses when unloading the module and the adapter
is still plugged in (Kernel 2.6.11.7 vanilla). Yet transmission seems
to fail completely (except increasing 'Tx Invalid misc' values nothing
happens).
- Driver 2: older Linksys Windows XP driver: ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/WUSB54Gv4_20040703.exe
Notes: ndiswrapper v1.2-rc1, kernel 2.6.11.7 (also works with grsec2
patch v2.1.5): seems to work, but only 11Mbit/s and without any
encryption. no need to unplug the device before removing the
ndiswrapper module. works on USB2.0, USB1.1 not tested (yet).

- Chipset: Broadcom - BCM4320?????
- usbid: 13b1:000e
- Driver: For 32bit versions, follow v2 (see below. They should workd
- Driver: For 64bit versions: get the usb8023.sys and
rndismp.sys from a Windows XP / Vista 64bit installation. Also make
sure you have the latest SVN version (or 1.20+). If you use this in
combination with the .inf file from the official drivers as found on
the LinkSys Support-site, it all works (even WEP and WPA)
- Card: Linksys #[WUSB54GSv2], 802.11b/g, USB 2.0 -- [link here|List#WUSB54GSV2]
- Chipset: Broadcom - BCM4320SKFBG
- usbid: 13b1:0014
- Driver: You can install this driver by either of the following two methods.
- Method1: The driver for this RNDIS card doesn't include two
.sys files required (usb8023k.sys and rndismpk.sys or usb8023x.sys and
rndismpx.sys), as they are part of Windows installation and don't need
to be installed in Windows. However, other drivers for different cards
based on RNDIS include these .sys files. One is Belkin F5D7051uk at [59].
You can install this driver with BCMRNDIS.INF, which installs the
required .sys files. You then need to inform ndiswrapper that this
driver, bcmrndis, should be used for usbid of WUSB54GSv2 (13b1:0014),
by executing 'ndiswrapper -d 13b1:0014 bcmrndis'
- Method2: Used the inf file from the CD, and the .SYS files from usr5420 available at www.usr.com http://www.usr-emea.com/support/s-prod-template.asp?loc=unkg&prod=5420.
Used snapshot from 13/02/2006, along with the usr system files that i
had to install on a windows machine to extract. Then copied the
wusb54gs.inf and wusb54gsv2.inf to the folder with the sys files - the
wusb54gs.inf worked seamlessly with my device on the snapshot.!
- Card: Linksys WUSB54GPv1
- Chipset: Prism54
- USBID: Vendor=5041 ProdID=2235 (5041:2235)
- Driver: I got this working (with WPA-PSK CCMP/TKIP)
effortlessly using the ndiswrapper/wpa_supplicant packages bundled on
the Ubuntu 6.06 CD. I used the Linksys WUSB54GPv4 1.02.00 driver
release here
which also includes the WUSB54GPv1 drivers in their own folder. I have
not checked if this driver is the same as the one in the seperate
WUSB54GPv1 driver release; I just know it works. Also, i had to
blacklist the islsm modules (www.prism54.org) that ship with Ubuntu.

- Driver-and-Installation
- Option 1: Use a homegrown driver INF file that I have created,
along with the same SYS file from above. It has the benefit that you
will not have to create any symlinks. I'm hosting it for your
convenience at http://ankhcraft.com/drivers/mn720-ankh.zip
Please note that I do not provide any warranty for this INF file that I
have created, express or implied. All I can say is that it works for
me, and I've used this card heavily (with this driver).
- Option 2: Use Dell's TrueMobile? 1300 driver. I'm hosting it for your convenience at http://ankhcraft.com/drivers/bcmwl5.zip
Please note that the pciids are not the same for this card, so,
following driver installation into ndiswrapper, you'll need to create
some symlinks, like so (as root): ln -s 14e4:4320:1028:0002.conf
/etc/ndiswrapper/14e4:4325:1414:0003.conf ln -s
14e4:4325:1414:0003.conf /etc/ndiswrapper/14e4:4325.conf
- Option 3: Use Microsoft's driver from the cd (or optionally from http://www.network-drivers.com/drivers/141/141400.htm)
Please be warned that this driver does not play nice with Linux hosted
NDIS emulation wrappers in general. In order to get this driver work
with ndiswrapper specifically, you must make sure you do NOT have the
card plugged into the cardbus slot when you insert the ndiswrapper
module. You'll get a kernel panic if you do, and then you're toast.
Plug the card in afterward. After this, it works wonderfully. Also, it
is worth mentioning that the Microsoft driver is known to be unstable
when used with LinuxAnt's
driverloader. You may experience random system lockups, even though you
may avoid the kernel panic mentioned above. I would suggest that you
stay away from this driver under Linux. joe@ankhcraft.com - ankhcraft

- Driver: Netgear windows driver Version: NETGEAR, Inc.,10/05/2004, 2.1 from http://www.netgear.com
or shipped with the setup CD. To get the driver, unzip it. The ndis
drivers are in the ndis directory. Used kernel Running Slackware v10.1
(kernel 2.6.10) ndiswrapper ver 1.1rc3 . There is a native driver for
Prism54 that is working on USB support. View its status at Prism54.org
- Other: ★★★★★ With the driver for Sitecom WL-142, this device
supports WPA2, keeps the device "alive" (with driver from netgear,
device stops working after a while) and correct some connection
problem : [60].
Note that the device ID for Sitecom is different, so you need to create
alias for it for WG111, e.g., with 'ndiswrapper -d 0846:4240 wlanuig',
after which 'ndiswrapper -l' should show 'hardware present'.
- Other: Works nearly well (several daily crashes in Summer 2005).

while, but after ~5 minutes of ssh/file copy traffic, the machine hung
and had to be rebooted (reproducibly).

- DriverVer 5.1213.06.0327. Ndiswrapper will load this driver
successfully and find the device, but iwlist scans will fail and the
device won't associate.
- Other: MUST rmmod, or blacklist kernel driver r8187 (in
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist) - it will claim the device before
ndiswrapper gets a chance. The r8187 driver will associate with an AP
and appear to work, but won't actually transmit any data.

chipset is same as other WG111 on this list, how to confirm?. I've
experienced a system lockup when removing the device from the usb port
or when 'deactivating' the interface in the Fedora internet config
tool; I have not yet isolated the problem because system behaves OK if
it is shutdown before removing the device (and I'm lazy and
complacent). This usb card did not run at all with ndiswrapper 1.0.

- pciid: 11AB:1FAA
- Driver: I got mine from the t-mobile CD that came with it
(mine is a 'customized card', basically meaning they slapped a t-mobile
sticker on it). I have been looking for a way to download these
drivers, but this is apparently not possible. I had to install the
software on a windows box, then have it install the 'Option PC Cards
driver selection' package. From that I got the files gtnwlan.inf and mrvw125.sys. You can install those with 'ndiswrapper -i gtnwlan.inf'

- Complementary required installation/information: Installation
succeed on a Fedora Core 4 system (32 bits, still can't succeed on 64
bits) ndiswrapper version is 1.4 and I had to install
kernel-devel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.stk16.i686.rpm in order for my card to
work. This patch allow the card to use a 16K stack instead of the 4K
default one (removing the freezing issue...). Replace i686 by i586 if
needed. Download here: http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/full/downloads-fc4-kernel-i686.php

- Driver: You need two drivers for this dongle; ar5523.inf and
athfmwdl.inf. The drivers from the install CD-ROM (for 2kXP) work
nicely
- Other: Runs smoothly on Debian testing 2.6.17. Since this
kernel does not have an option to disable 4k stacks I patched the
kernel with the appropriate linuxant 16kstack patch from this
page. It will _not_ work without this!. Further I could only get the
drivers loaded cleanly by using the latest stable release of
ndiswrapper (1.23) the svn version and the version from apt did not
work. For me it does not work to insert the module from the
modprobe.conf file or other, so instead I have added the following
lines to my /etc/init.d/dhclient script #wlan hack; echo 'Bringing up
wireless device'; modprobe ndiswrapper; sleep 2; ifconfig wlan0 up;
sleep 1. This brings the device up nicely and everything is shipshaped.
The only thing I need to remedy is that the card does not get reset on
reboot, and is hence not proberly brought up after this, but this can
of course easily be worked around by always powering off instead.

with: Ndiswrapper version 0.8 and 0.9 Sony Ericsson driver. Note that
legacy Broadcom driver used for my Dell TrueMobile? 1400 doesn't work
for this adapter, which makes me think we have a modified chipset. On
the other hand, Sony Ericsson driver works for the TrueMobile?,
although a bit unstable. This is fine as both cards show the same
chipset to the system, so have to use the same driver. Kernel version
2.6.5 Using Kernel 2.6.11 & ndiswrapper 0.12+1.0rc2-1 & Sony
driver mentioned, found that card could not get an IP address from my
dhcp router. Turns out that the driver.conf file incorrectly sets
radiostate to 1 (false) when it should be 0 (true). Editing
/etc/ndiwsrapper/bcmwl5/<driver>.conf & changing radiostate
from 1 to 0 fixed it. No problem to point out. WEP and WPA/PSK work
fine. Notice: GPRS stuff works also great, modem seen as legacy serial
port (ttyS?). See http://www.internecik.com/?p1=howto&a1=se_gc75linux for further information.

how to enable 108Mbps (this cards supports "Super G"), so I can't say
if this works or not. I'm using ndiswrapper version 1.1. As a general
tip, remember you must commit the changes made with iwconfig (do
"iwconfig wlan0 commit" after making changes with iwconfig... this will
save you hours and a severe head-ache.

used with Win2k driver. The identical drivers are available on the
product CD. Encryption: WEP/WPA both work fine. Tested with ndiswrapper
1.08 & 1.11. I haven't tested yet for "Super G" technology. I used
kernel 2.6.15.1 and above. As a remark, kernel 2.6.15.1 used to crash
when the dongle was removed and put back again (using ndiswrapper 1.8).
Crashes stopped after moving to 2.6.16. If you use slackware, make sure
you create a custom script to bring up/down the wlan interface,
slackware's network scripts don't seem to work.
- Another user's notes: The identical drivers are available on
the product CD. I only see one set of drivers which apparently work for
Win9x/NT/XP. I tested the adapter successfully on Debian Sid, kernel
2.6.12, ndiswrapper version 1.23. 'lsusb' originally reports a product
id of 3007, but the drivers refer to 3006, and lsusb itself reports
3006 after the drivers have been loaded. Both 'athfmwdl.inf' and
'net5523.inf' must be loaded; the former apparently loads firmware and
the latter apparently invokes the driver. The sequence of commands that
works for me is: 'ndiswrapper -i athfmwdl.inf', 'modprobe ndiswrapper',
'modprobe -r ndiswrapper', 'ndiswrapper -i net5523.inf', 'modprobe
ndiswrapper'.

- Driver: I, on the other hand, was able to extract the USR
driver from the CD. Run usrsetup.exe through Wine and it'll give you a
couple of .cab files you can use (the installer itself will fail). I
chose to install USRMAXG.inf, but I think USRMAXGa.inf would work just
as well. Works just fine. Gentoo Linux, 2.6.14 kernel, ndiswrapper 1.5

- Bug: If the usb adapter is disconnected before the system
shutdown the computer freeze, probably kernel panic. no problem under
openSuSE 10.1, under openSuSE 10.0 the card have to be configured under
Yast. it could be remove at any time. If ndiswrapper eat all cpu and

- Driver: Official U.S. Robotics [66].
Unpack it and install driver with USR5421X.inf. This doesn't copy the
.sys files (.sys files for RNDIS driver are part of Windows, so they
are not needed in Windows; however, driver for USR5421 distributes .sys
files but they are not installed by .inf file); so copy RNDISMPK.sys
and usb8023k.sys files into /etc/ndiswrapper/usr5421x directory as
rndismpk.sys and usb8023k.sys respectively).
- Other: Works with snapshot of 2006-02-13.
- Other: With 2.6.16 and later kernels, RNDIS devices are not
initialized (when device is plugged in, nothing happens). To get it
going, you need to set the variable bConfigurationValue in sysfs. An
easy way to do this is to add
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{idProduct}=="001b", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0baf", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c 'echo 1 > /sys/%p/device/bConfigurationValue'"
to /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_local_rules file and restart udev. Replace
idProduct and idVendor as appropriate; for USR5421, 'lsusb' shows 001b
(idProduct) and 0baf (idVendor).

- Driver: Downloaded from Zyxel ftp://ftp.us.zyxel.com/ZyAIR_G-302_v2/driver/G-302v2_v1.0.0_driver_utility.zip
- Other: ndiswrapper 1.8-1 / kernel 2.6.14-2-k7 / Debian Testing
-- I haven't tried with WEP yet. Card works but seems to drop incoming
connections every once in a while. Could be a config issue on my part
though.
- Other: Ubuntu 6.06, kernel 2.6.15-23-386, ndiswrapper 1.8.
Make sure you remove acx Kernel module as this conflicts and does not
work. Next Ubuntu release with latest acx Kernel module will probably
work. -- Julian Yap @ 20060529

- Chipset: RaLink ralink RT2500 802.11 Cardbus Reference Card (rev 01).
- pciid: 1814:0201.
- Driver: Obtained from the CD included with the card. It seems
to be the one that ralink distributes for rt2500 (ver. 2.2.8 -
9/9/2004).
- ndiswrapper ver: 1.1rc3 (obtained with dmesg).
- Other: Knoppix 3.9 (kernel 2.6.11) live-CD. Knoppix
autodetects the card and assigns the module rt2500 to it, but the
system crashes some times when trying to use the wireless card. I have
removed the rt2500 module and configured the card with ndiswrapper and
it works.
