Hi Folks,

my usb stick wireless model : d-link DWL G122
h/w ver c1

i hope i got the adapter that dsl claims to be working with.
following is the link to it. unfortunately it is in the "Cards That Work, But May Take Some Effort" category.

dsl verified wireless card

the link light is blinking.

when i do lsusb i get the following

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 07d1:3c03 D-Link System
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0718:0083 Imation Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 1241:1177

i have an imation usb pen drive and a usb mouse connected
besides the dlink usb wireless adapter.

as per the link above i copied rt73.o, wirelessLanUp.sh
and wirelessLanDown.sh scripts and ran wirelessLanUp.sh.
i get segmentation fault error.

then i decided to reboot

i did lsmod first.

i get the following

usb-storage 61696 1
usb-ohci 17896 0 (unused)
usbcore 57600 1 [hid usb-storage usb-ohci]

then i do dmesg i get the following. i am posting only the usb part.

then i did

Code Sample

insmod rt73.o

i did lsmod again and i get the following

then i do dmesg again and i get the following

what is going on ? is the usb adapter recognized. if it is, is this the right driver ?

finally after loading the module what commands do i use to configure using dhcp.

Thanks a lot.

Is that another instance of that error, or just the old one?

insmod rt73
ifconfig rausb0 up
ifconfig -a

See if that shows up maybe...

Hi

Just tried my DWL-122 and after doing a Prism2 setup the DWL-122 was recognized and I could set it up and use.
I just did a frugal install today with the new DSL 3.3

kbf, rev C1 is not prism2 based.

Hi ^thehatsrule^

insmod rt73
ifconfig rausb0 up
ifconfig -a

after i run ifconfig rausb0 up i get the error
"segmentation fault".

when i do iwconfig after running "insmod rt73" it does show
rausb0 as a wireless interface besides eth0 and l0

i hope i bought the same wireless adapter that it listed here
dsl verified wireless adapter

Thanks.
