Netgear WG311t for Fedora Core 5 - alive.in.an.ultra.world - 2006-04-01


Hi

 

I have just installed Fedora Core 5 and I am starting off with trying to get myself connected to the internet using my Netgear WG311t wireless adapter. I probably couldn't be much more of a linux noob right now although Fedora does appear to be rather friendly. I have been frantically googling to find me some drivers but all links i find seem to be dead

 

Please help me :)

you'll need to use ndiswrapper to get it to work (most likely)

 

have a look at the ndiswrapper howto right here [/url][url=<___base_url___>/index.php?showtopic=2098][/url][url=<___base_url___>/index.php?showtopic=2098]https://www.linux-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2098

Thanks man

 

I'll have a look at this now.. I have been experiencing some wierd things happening when I try to install anything. I get an error message saying: unable to receive software information... i get this also if i try to acces the add/remove programs tool. I have tried to install mplayer through yum and that fails too.

 

thanks
