My laptop is 233 MHz w/64 mb ram, and runs DSL like a champ. However, I can not get the D-Link card to work. The card is D-Link AirPlus DWL-G650 card. I have the windows drivers, I think, and can mount the HDD to get them.
From the root-access XShell, I used the ndiswrapper command for those driver files. I then run ndiswrapper -l and get this Installed ndis drivers: net5211 hardward present.
the command iwconfig: lo no wireless extensions. ath0 IEEE801.11.....blah, blah blah, (will post all if needed)
From DSL Control Panel, Netcardconfig: "No supported network cards found".
Does all this mean, I did the right steps, but am simply out of luck with this card all together? Is there something else I can do?
Thanks, Michael
ps I am very new to linux, so please explain with that in mind. Thanks.
