Networking :: How Install RT2500 driver in DSL?

I have compiled my own driver for this card for kernel 2.4.26 and a boot script that loads the driver and logs me into my DHCP WEP network.
I'd be willing to share my file just let me know.

i managed to install my integrated rt2500 wlan card with the help of th belkin guide -sweet
my laptop has a button to turn on the wlan, which just doesnt seem to be working even now.
question is: how can i make it turn my card on.:rock:
thx

How Use NDISWRAPPER for the RT2500:

First, get the RT2500 Driver for WINDOWS 2000 (the XP Driver causes PC Freeze)... In your case vattek The driver can be found in the official page of your NOTEBOOK (if is HP, search in hp.com, if is toshiba search in thosiba.com or something), search for the Windows 2000 driver...

Now... Do this:

1.- Copy the Folder Windows 2000 Driver (in some cases the drivers are in a folder called Win2k) to your "/" root directory in damm small linux... "/win2k" <--- this is the view after copy in the root directory... (all this need do as ROOT user)

2.- Change to the DSL User and do this:
sudo ndiswrapper -i /win2k/RT2500.inf (if the .inf is called RT500, maybe the .inf name is diferent, exemple m2500.inf, or other name).

3.- sudo ndiswrapper -l
This should display the message "Installed ndis drivers: rt2500 driver present, hardware present"

4.- sudo ndiswrapper -m

5.- sudo depmod -a

6.- sudo modprobe ndiswrapper

7.- sudo ifconfig -a

with this, the wlan0 appears in the ifconfig list

8.- Now, just configure the card with the NETCARD CONFIG in system tools or something, i dont remember where is that, but is in the main menu of the damm small linux...

thx
but i could only find an xp driver, and depmode -a had no affect as I booted from a pendrive and the says the filesystem is read-only
ifconfig showed wlan0 so it worked nevertheless, altough i made it that far even the last time i ve tried but i still cant turn my adapter on, the goddamn led just doesnt light
