Networking :: Belkin F5D7010 setup



I'm trying to set up my wireless PCMIA card using the following commands:

ndiswrapper -i net8185.inf
ndiswrapper -l  (shows driver installed)
lspci -n   (shows me that 1799:701f  is my wireless device)
ndiswrapper -d 1799:701F net8185
ndiswrapper -l  (shows: driver installed, hardware present)
modprobe ndiswrapper   (should turn on my wireless car after about 5 - 10 seconds but nothing happens)

What am I doing wrong ?   This is the way I get it to work in Puppy Linux and Ubuntu.

What is the proper way to set up a wireless card with ndiswrapper ?

Bert

Type iwconfig and see what you got, eth0, wlan0, ath0....?
If using dhcp server, then you need to type pump -i eth0
or whatever you got as the device from iwconfig.

dsl@box:~$ sudo iwconfig
lo                no wireless extensions.

eth0           no wireless extensions.

dsl@box:~$ sudo pump -i eth0
Operation failed.
dsl@box:~$

dsl@box:~$ sudo ndiswrapper -i net8185.inf
Installing net8185
dsl@box:~$ ndiswrapper -l
Installed drivers:
net8185 driver installed
dsl@box:~$ ndiswrapper -d 1799:701f net8185
Driver 'net8185' is used for '1799:701f'
dsl@box:~$ ndiswrapper -l
dsl@box:~$ modprobe ndiswrapper
dsl@box:~$ lsmod | grep ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper 171708 0
usbcore 58016 1 [ndiswrapper hid usb-storage usb-ohci]
dsl@box:~$ iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

etho no wireless extensions.
dsl@box:~$

Anyone ?
