Networking :: Linksys WPC11 v4 works under DSL 0.9.1
On a Toshiba Satellite laptop.
The following details may help(?):
First, I downloaded the Realtek driver, as suggested, from
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?Keyword=rtl8180
(I did this under winblos, and parked it on my USB drive in "/LinksysWlan";
downloaded the Windows XP driver (1.75) arbitrarily)
Then I booted up DSL 0.9.1
Mount sda1 (my USB drive)
Bring up the DSLpanel
[ndiswrapper]
inf file: /mnt/sda1/LinksysWlan/net8180.inf
device: wlan0
ssid: <the ssid of my router>
wep: <the WEP passcode for my router>
OK
[wlanconfig]
ESSID: <set to same ssid as for ndiswrapper>
just hit <enter> for the rest of the queries
[netcardconfig]
DHCP = yes.
comes back with "OK"
Now I can bring up browser, etc.
Only thing I haven't gotten running that I've tried so far
is wavemon (which complains "fatal error: could not get
range information" ) - linksys/driver hole?
cheers.
OH
What an idiot I am...
This should be posted to the "verified wireless cards" subtopic.
