Networking :: ndiswrapper crater dsl 0.8.2

I am trying to get a Belkin F5D1070 802.11g working. I did a hard drive install and can use a 3com EtherLink III pcmcia no problem.

However, I put in the Belkin disk and run
ndiswrapper -i /cdrom/Drivers/bcmw15.inf
and then
ndiswrapper -l
I get
bcwm15 hardware present

But, when I run
modprobe ndiswrapper
the os locks up.
The powrer LED comes on on the Belkin card, but nothing else and I have to POR to get the system back.

Any ideas?

hi, i've a similiar problem like u

i check and driver is installed and my card is detected
$ndiswrapper -l

$Installed ndis drivers
$bcmw15 hardware present

and when i do modprobe ndiswrapper, i need also to reset my computer.:-(

in the forum of ndiswrapper i founded similar problems with the belkin cards and the version 10 of ndiswrapper

Forum of ndiswrapper.

it seems that changing to an older version works fine with this driver,
i'll try it.
i hope that can help u, or at least where find more information

Try using a different .inf driver...maybe for win98 instead of 2000/XP?
