For a long time (especially with the 2.4.x kernels), I’d been using a Linksys WUSB11-V26 with the Atmel RFMD 503 as the wireless NIC for my home network, using the. It worked pretty well, but then I upgraded to a 2.6.x kernel and while it continued to work for a short time, when we suffered a prolonged power outage, the NIC refused to work when power came back. That my particular WUSB11-V26 only worked with the 0.90.2-140 revision of the firmware (newer firmwares wouldn’t turn the radio on) — once I learned this, everything was fine, I’d just hack the driver source to use the older firmware and everything was fine. However, when upgrading to 2.6.x, I discovered this meant also needing to upgrade to a more recent version of the at76c503 driver, which was fine since my NIC already had the 0.90.2-140 firmware downloaded to it. I built the new driver, installed it, and everything worked fine — until the powerloss. Watching the latest at76c503 driver try to download the firmware resulted in an 'unexpected opcode 146' error.

So, I decided it was time to buy a slightly better supported wireless NIC and stop fussing with this piece of junk. Today, I ran out to CompUSA (instant gratification!) and bought myself a Linksys WMP54GS, which you can get at for around $59.99. I decided to go the PCI card route because I wanted to get 802.11g, but my host only has USB 1.1 and I didn’t want to spend the money on a USB 2.0 PCI card in addition to a new USB wireless NIC. Not only that, but most USB NICs have dinky attached antennas, and the PCI card has a screw-on antenna that can be replaced with larger and presumably better antennas. This is important depending on where in the house I need to position the antenna to get the best signal and coverage.

Since I know that wireless NICs aren’t well supported under Linux for various reasons, I decided to log all I had to do to get this particular NIC working on my machine. I run Debian, but these instructions should help get you pointed in the right direction for the most part. I hope this mini-HOWTO proves useful to you if you are in the process of installing a WMP54GS PCI NIC too; leave a comment if it did (or didn’t — maybe I can help)! Identify what you’ve got First, identify what you’ve actually got.

This is what my machine reports: $ lspci. 0000:01:0b.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03) $ lspci -n grep 0000:01:0b.0 0000:01:0b.0 0280: 14e4:4320 (rev 03) Install NdisWrapper There’s no specific driver for the WMP54GS for Linux.

The trick is to use, a package which loads the WinXP drivers (!) under Linux — for better or worse, this apparently works. You can download the source tarball or get the Debian package. Note: I struggled with the Debian ndiswrapper-source and ndiswrapper-utils version 1.0rc2 which installed but did NOT work — I couldn’t set the SSID using iwconfig at all. You must use version 1.1. So, here are the steps to download, build, and install NdisWrapper for Debian systems: $ cd /tmp $ wget $ dpkg -i ndiswrapper-source1.1-1i386.deb $ cd /usr/src $ gzip -dc ndiswrapper-source.tar.gz tar xf - $ cd modules/ndiswrapper $ debian/rules binary-utils $ debian/rules binary-modules $ cd.

$ dpkg -i ndiswrapper-utils1.1-1i386.deb $ dpkg -i ndiswrapper-modules-2.6.101.1-1i386.deb Install the Linksys WMP54GS driver At this point, you now have NdisWrapper installed. But, what about the actual WMP54GS drivers? You can pull them off the CD that came with the NIC, or you can download them. According to the NdisWrapper, you want to download this. Either way, you need the following three files: Drivers/bcm43xx.cat Drivers/BCMWL5.inf Drivers/bcmwl5.sys According to the NdisWrapper, you don’t need to actually “install” the self-extracting EXE on a Windows machine. Just use a archive extraction program that understands self-extracting EXE’s and extract those three files that we need.

Actually, I think we only need the.inf and.sys files, but I extracted the.cat file because it was the only other file in the directory. Once you’ve got those files extracted, you “install” them using the ndiswrapper tool: # ndiswrapper -i BCMWL5.inf Installing bcmwl5 # ndiswrapper -l Installed ndis drivers: bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present Time to load the driver If you’ve done all the previous steps correctly, at this point the only thing left to do is load the ndiswrapper kernel module, which in turn will load the bcmwl5 driver we just installed, and you should be in business. # modprobe ndiswrapper Verify that it loaded correctly by checking what got written to syslog.

Maxim: That’s where you would be wrong. Atmel releases their firmware as binary-only, and the specific revision of the WUSB11-V26 didn’t work with their latest firmware (it wouldn’t turn the radio on). While I admire open source driver developers, if you can run the drivers that the manufacturer tested (i.e., the Windows drivers, via ndiswrapper), you at least know it’s going to work. For the Atmel chips, you had to choose between the which was being developed by someone at Atmel, I believe.

Or, you could use Joerg Albert’s driver. How would you know that the driver NOT developed by Atmel would be the better driver? Regardless, for the Broadcom BCM4306, this is a moot point: they won’t release spec. So open source native drivers for Linux won’t be developed, so ndiswrapper is the only choice at this point.

Precisely, re the Broadcom device and the use of a wrapper to use Win drivers. If it works, it gives you a working 802.11 facility under a.nix environment. Go with it and get on with the real business of using it.

Not get too obsessed with the age-old ‘ferk using a win driver, if it aint native. It sucks’ BS. I am gonna try the suggested method for getting the BC to work (yeah, like others who mentioned it, tried most of the few other guides and they all ferked up.

Or lacked something important). So in anticipation of it working, this old virtual cat spirit (aka JustAnUnCoolCat as i was known in the world of mp3 player support circles) says a thank you for posting the outline and details of how you managed this – and hey, if i dont get no sucess. Hell, thanks anyway 😀 ‘Tom Kat’.ducks to avoid open-source fanatic sourced incoming nukes and other flamewar ammo sent at high-speed in my direction.:p.

This article is very good i have installed my wireless network drives but its not full configured yet.I m using suse 10.1. So need help. I followd your manuals n it worked like this ndiswrapper -i BCMWL5.inf bcmw15 driver installed ndiswrapper -l bcmw15 driver installed then i used yast n configured my wireless connection with option User Controlled with NetworkManager, Device name: wlan0, Device Type Wireless n used static ip 192.168.2.23 n last ESSID ‘Orbit’.

But my wireless connection didnt start. Dont know wat to do should i start something or do some other settings. Help me in that.

Hello Dossy, thanks for this FAQ! I’ve new info for Nathan (comment 12): I’ve got my BCM4318 working under FC5 x8664. First I updated the kernel and other packages using yum. I’ve spent several evenings playing with native bcm43xx driver, but for my card it didn’t worked. Also on bcm43xx developer’s site the 4318 chip support is still marked as unstable.

So I blacklisted the bcm43xx driver, removed from /etc/modprobe.conf and installed ndiswrapper. For my notebook model Acer offers only 32-bit driver, so I had to get 64-bit one for another model (Acer Ferrari 4000) and succeeded. I’m using it along with wpasupplicant (using WPA2-AES) and dhclient. Regards, Jan.

Install networkmanager from Synaptic 8. Blacklist bcm43xx driver Open a Terminal window Type “sudo pico etc/modprobe.d/blacklist” At the bottom add the lines # get rid of the default kernel drivers blacklist bcm43xx Reboot. That worked for me.

Thanks again Dossy. Hey Dossy, Like to say thanks this helped me get me up and running under ubuntu fiesty fawn.

Linksys Wmp54g V4 Windows 7

Could someone please tell me exactly where I can find a driver for: WMP54g v2 for Vista SP2 32bit It used to work just fine, until I recently reinstalled Vista (and installed all the updates) and now my internet connection is 'limited.' This means that it connects, but is extremely slow and the connection goes in and out. Here are some random notes about my problem:. Nothing is disabled, there are not any conflicts, and the problem remains even if I restore the OS back to restore point that I created right after reinstalling Vista (and before doing anything else).

If I hook the computer directly up to my netgear router via cable, Windows Update will download and install a more recent version of said driver (no improvement). Other laptops in the house have no problems with the wifi. I have turned off both my cable modem and wifi router several times. The adapter does connect to the internet, and the signal strength is 'excellent', but if drill down to the properties of the connection, it says that IPV4 is connected to the internet, but IPV6 is 'limited.' This then results in a very weak connection to the internet that goes in and out. I have tried unchecking IPV6 per some recommendations, but that did not help.

I have tried resetting everything (winsock, etc) via command prompt. Firewall is off. no antivirus software Thank you in advance! Did you set the encryption correctly? First go to device manager in the control panel, then network adapters and check to see if there is an exclamation mark next to it. If there is no red exclamation mark next to it, then the device driver was installed. Left double-click the icon for your WMP54G V2 and left click the driver tab.

It should give you information on the driver. Make certain the WMP54G is not disabled, if it is enable it.

If still the issue persist then try to download the drivers from the Linksys/Cisco website:. Then do the manual installation. As there is no drivers available specifically for Windows Vista.
